Tribute: Kolapo Kola Daisi Mourns, Late Otunba Alao-Akala.
Shock and disbelief have continued to trail the news of the death of former Oyo State Governor, Otunba Adebayo-Alao- Akala. The former Governor died on Wednesday morning, in his hometown, Ogbomoso, Oyo State.
While reacting to the news of the former governor’s death, Mr Kolapo Kola- Daisi, Oyo South Senatorial aspirant lamented and expressed deep shock over the passage of the former governor which he said came suddenly and unexpected considering that he never showed any sign of sickness.
“I even gathered that he watched the football match between Nigeria and Egypt on Tuesday. This is a great lesson to us all. It has shown the greatness of the Almighty God in the affairs of men.
“I share in the grief of his family, his political associates, the people of Ogbomoso and Oyo State, who would continue to miss the void he left behind. I know that no words can adequately capture the grief and the pains of the loss, I however pray that the Almighty God console them.
“As we all mourn the passing away of this great Nigerian. Let me leave you with the words of Late Nelson Mandela. ‘Death is something inevitable. When a man has done what he considers to be his duty to his people and his country, he can rest in peace’. His Excellency, Otunba Alao-Akala has done his duty to his people and his country. May his soul rest in peace and May the Almighty God grant him a peaceful repose”, Kola-Daisi prayed.
