The Ekiti state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) has commiserated with the State Government and the ruling All Progressive Congress, (APC) over the death of its State Chairman, Barrister Paul Omotosho.
The party stated that it shared in the pain of the families of the late APC helmsman. The PDP said that its thoughts and prayers were with them at this trying moment of grief.
The opposition party in a statement made available to journalists in Ado-Ekiti by the State Publicity Secretary Mr Raphael Adeyanju, said
“On behalf of all members of our great party PDP, we express our heartfelt condolence with the Government of Ekiti State and the families of Barrister Omotosho over the untimely demise of a promising Ekiti State son . The party wishes the families, friends and political associates of the late patriot continued support and guidance of the Almighty God,”
Describing Omotosho as a patriot who placed the interest of Ekiti State above partisan politics,the PDP said that his death is a great loss not only to the ruling party, but to Nigeria as a country.
” Our only consolation is that the late APC leader lived a fulfilled life as a God fearing man, a responsible family man , a dedicated community leader, and a committed party man “.
