Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has commiserated with the state House of Assembly and the family of Hon. Abubakar Olawoyin over the death of the House Leader.
His reaction is contained in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Rafiu Ajakaye, on Monday in Ilorin.
According to Governor AbdulRazaq, the death of the lawmaker is sad and shocking.
Olawoyin, who represented Ilorin Central Constituency, died in the early hours of Monday during a brief illness.
The governor also commiserated with the Emir of Ilorin, Dr Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, and the people of Magaji Ngeri/Ilorin Central Constituency over the passing away of Olawoyin.
“We will miss in him as a grassroots politician, core party man and a great lawmaker who truly distinguished himself as the Leader of the Ninth Assembly.
“I pray Almighty Allah, the Oft-Forgiving and the Merciful, to forgive and grant Hon. Olawoyin al-Jannah Firdaus and comfort his family,” Governor AbdulRazaq said.
