Ogun State Governor and Chairman of the South Governors’ Forum, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has commiserated with Governor of Ondo State, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, over the death of the Secretary to the State Government, SSG, Tayo Oluwatuyi.
Abiodun, who also condoled with the people of Ondo State over the passing of the SSG, described Oluwatuyi’s death as a great loss to the government and the state.
Oluwatuyi reportedly died on Saturday at a hospital in the state from the injuries he sustained in car accident.
The accident occurred on December 17, while the late Oluwatuyi was travelling from Akure, the state capital, to Ibadan, Oyo State.
The Ogun State governor stated that the deceased SSG was a consummate public servant, a thoroughbred professional, and a conscientious individual.
Abiodun added that Oluwatuyi’s imprints and strides in and out of the government in Ondo State had been nothing short of phenomenal.
“On behalf of the Southern States’ governors, I want to sympathise with His Excellency, Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, and the entire good people of Ondo State over the sudden demise of Oluwatuyi.
“I urge my brother, the State Executive Council, and the family and friends of the deceased to take consolation in the fact that the deceased lived a life of service for which he will be remembered for a long time to come.”
