Buhari condoles with Oyo, Ekiti, Ogun over Gen Olurin’s death

President Muhammadu Buhari has commiserated with the government and people of Ogun, Ekiti and Oyo States over passing of former military Governor and Administrator, Gen. Adetunji Idowu Olurin.

A statement issued by Femi Adesina, Special Adviser to the President (Media & Publicity) Saturday said the president joined family, friends and professional colleagues in mourning the military officer, “who served the country meritoriously in his career, extending support when he was called upon as military Governor in Oyo State, and later as Administrator in Ekiti State. He also was outstanding as ECOMOG Commander in Liberia.”

President Buhari noted Gen. Olurin’s efforts in community development, particularly in his state, Ogun, willingly putting his experience and knowledge at the service of various governments.

The President prayed that the Almighty God will grant the departed soul eternal rest, and comfort his family.
