Former senate leader and 2023 governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress APC in Oyo state, Senator Teslim Folarin mourns the passing of the State Chairman of the progressive party, Barr. Isaac Ajiboye Omodewu.
The former commissioner during Ajimobi administration died in United States in the early hours of Monday after a brief illness.
Senator Folarin’s condolence message reads:
I Have Lost A Friend, An Ally and a Confidant
I received, with rude shock, the sad news of the death of the State Chairman of our great party, APC Oyo State, Barr. Isaac Ajiboye Omodewu.
Barr. Omodewu passed away in the United States of America where he was receiving treatment for an ailment.
Until his last moment, he was a diligent, dutiful, committed and loyal party leader, a wonderful family man and a friend whose loyalty to party matter was unflagging.
His ability to organize and restructure the party, even in the face of daunting challenges was awesome.
To his credit, the Oyo APC was able to achieve the great successes recorded during the last general elections.
He was equally instrumental to the resilience demonstrated by the Oyo APC during the last Local Government Elections where the Oyo APC presented candidates in all the 33 Local Governments for the position of Chairmen and the 351 wards as Councilors.
The Oyo APC and of course myself will miss his leadership qualities and dedication.
I pray that God Almighty gives his immediate family, Oyo APC family and friends the fortitude to bear the great loss.
Teslim Kolawole Folarin.
