The Governor of Ogun
State, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has expressed great sorrow over the death of former
Deputy Governor of the State, Alhaji Abdul Rafiu Ogunleye.
Abiodun in a statement
signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, described Alhaji Ogunleye
as an astute administrator and a politician per excellent who contributed
immensely to the socio-economic and political development of Ogun State, attributing
the development currently being enjoyed by the people to the efforts of people
like the deceased, who worked tirelessly to ensure that the State attain its
current status.
The Governor said he
had hoped that the former Deputy Governor would live longer so his
administration would continue to tap from his wealth of experience for the
benefit of the people of the State and urged the family to take consolation in the
fact that Alhaji Ogunleye lived an impactful life that benefitted
thousands of people, praying Almighty Allah to give them the fortitude to bear
the loss and grant him repose in Aljanna Firdaus.
