CHAIRMAN, Folhope Nigeria Limited, Chief Emmanuel Folorunsho Ogunnaike (MFR), has also joined other Nigerians to mourn the demise of Dr Olatunde Agbato. Ogunnaike, in a statement made available to the Nigerian Tribune, on  Monday said:” Even though Dr Agbato’s death is a terrible blow and a colossal loss to the entire nation, especially his immediate family particularly Nigerian farmers, we need to thank God for a good life he has spent.

“In life, not how far but how well. Dr Agbato is a rare gem, role model, builder, mentor and benefactor to so many. He touched many people’s lives for good. He has left his footprint on the sand of time and the legacy he left behind would speak in his favour.

“We all love him and already missing him but God loves him most. One by one is our journey into this planet earth and one by one we shall depart. I pray fervently for the repose of his soul.”
