Speaker Funminiyi Afuye’s Death Shocking, Devastating –  Gov Oyetola

Governor Adegboyega Oyetola of Osun state  has described the news of the death of Rt. Honourable Funminiyi Afuye as shocking and devastating.

Afuye was until his death on Wednesday, the  Speaker of Ekiti State House of Assembly .

Oyetola has  urged both the immediate past governor of the state, Dr. Kayode Fayemi , with whom the deceased worked closely with and the incumbent governor, Biodun Oyebanji, who was also looking forward to working with the late Speaker, to take heart and be consoled with the fact that the late Afuye demonstrated that he was indeed a loyal, dedicated and committed progressive politician while alive.

In a statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com   by his Chief Press Secretary,  Mr Ismail Omipidan, the governor acknowledged the late Speaker’s prowess as a legislator and an administrator which he had shown in the management of the affairs of the House, saying that he would be sorely missed by his colleagues, the government and the people of Ekiti state.

While condoling with the family of the late Speaker, Oyetola further described Afuye as an astute politician and a seasoned legislator whose impacts in the advancement of the cause of good legislation, responsible and responsive representation in Ekiti state cannot be quantified.

He, therefore, urged the family of the deceased to take solace in the fact that the late Speaker led a good life worthy of emulation.

‘On behalf of the government and the good people of Osun, I join family members, friends, the Government and people of Ekiti State to mourn the death of the Speaker of the Ekiti House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Funminiyi Afuye.

I pray Almighty God overlook his shortcomings and grant his family and loved ones the strength to bear his demise’ Oyetola added- Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
