A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Oluyole LGA in Oyo State, Chief Muili Ojuolape, has passed on.
The deceased, fondly called Baba Ojuolape, a Chieftain of APC , died on Tuesday after a brief illness; according to the House of Representatives Member, from Oluyole Federal Constituency, Tolulope Akande-Sadipe.
She confirmed Ojuolape’s death in Ibadan on Wednesday in a condolence message through her Media Aide, Olamilekan Olusada.
According to the statement, the lawmaker expressed shock over the death of the party chieftain, saying, “The unthinkable happened. We received the news of a second loss in Oluyole APC. We are saddened by the exit of another committed progressive. It’s difficult to bear the pain!
“Baba Ojuolape as I fondly called you, Baba Muili Ojuolape, you were indeed a father to me in Oluyole. As you go to your Maker, I pray you … I will surely miss you, APC Oluyole will surely miss you, APC ward one shall surely miss you too. TASK Oluyole shall surely miss you. My sincere condolences to your immediate family. May the Almighty uphold your family to bear this loss.”
She said, “it is natural to grief when death strikes in a well knitted family, but we have the confidence that the sacrifices you made in your lifetime to build the APC in your local chapter, Oluyole into a viable democratic institution, shall not be in vain”.
“You have played your part and left, and your democratic credentials should always spur us to greater service.”
Akande-Sadipe therefore prayed to God to comfort Ojuolape’s family and grant them fortitude to bear the loss.–
