The former chairman of Ibadan South East Local Government Area, Mr. Bimbo Omiyale, is dead.
Omiyale died on Sunday morning after a protracted illness.
Former Chairman, Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON), Mr. Ayodeji Abass-Aleshinloye, confirmed Omiyale’s demise in a statement on Sunday.
Abass-Aleshinloye expressed sadness and shock at the death of Omiyale, whom he described as a “strong, dedicated, and loyal member of the ex-Oyo ALGON forum.”
He condoled with the deceased family, people, and Ibadan South East Local Government, saying Omiyale will be missed by political associates and many close to him.
Speaking further, the ex-ALGON chairman charged Governor Seyi Makinde to adhere to the Supreme Court judgement in paying all the entitlements of the former chairmen to make them meet their financial obligations.
Abass-Aleshinloye argued that many of his members had died owing to a lack of funds to meet their medical bills.
According to Abass-Aleshinloye, the death of Bimbo Omiyale brought the number of members lost as a result of medical challenges or inability to meet financial obligations.
Omiyale was buried later in the day at his Ibadan residence, in accordance with Muslim rites.
Omiyale’s death was followed by an avalanche of condolence messages.
