THE immediate past governor of Osun state, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, on Tuesday condoled with Governor Rauf Aregbesola on the death of his mother, Alhaja Saratu Aregbesola.
Oyinlola, in a condolence message released on Tuesday said the exceptional bond between Aregbesola and his mum was inspiring, maintaining that the governor should be consoled by the fact that his mother lived well and was loved by all.
He stated that “as mortals we never want our elderly ones to go. But the Holy Books say that all souls must taste death, so we have to submit to the supreme will of the almighty from whom we came and unto whom we shall all go”.
While praying for the repose of her soul, Oyinlola also prayed to God to grant the children and the grandchildren she left behind long life and God’s guidance.
“I sympathise with the Aregbesola family on this huge, unforgettable loss. God will repose her soul and protect all she left behind,” he added.
