……Akeredolu Mourns Otunba Niyi Emuleomo
Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu,SAN, has described the death of Otunba Niyi Jose Emuleomo, an Ilaje born politician and community leader, as a huge loss and hurting tragedy.
Governor Akeredolu who recalled the commitment of the deceased to the formation of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in 2014 said, he was devoted to the development of the party and the well-being of his people.
Governor Akeredolu in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Richard Olatunde, maintained that the late Emuleomo was not only successful in his chosen career, but also dedicated his life to the service of humanity and contributed immensely to the development of the state, particularly Ilaje local government, where he hailed from.
“As the son of one of Ondo’s founding bureaucrat who was the second Head of Service in the state, Otunba Emuleomo carried on that legacy, sustained it and gave his best for the good of his people. Death is cruel. Its sting has robbed the people, and indeed, our dear state of another shining light. A strong pillar of the people. He will be sorely missed by all.
“My heart goes to the family. My the Lord comfort and give them the fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss. My prayer for Emuleomo is that he finds peace in the prince of peace and rest in his bosom till the final day when we shall all meet and part no more.” Governor Akeredolu said.
Ondo APC laments loss of a committed member, tireless financier
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State has lost a committed member to the insatiable power of death.
News of the demise of Otunba Niyi Jose Emuleomo was rattling and deflating.
This is contained in a statement signed by Alex Kalejaye, Publicity Secretary of Ondo APC and a copy obtained by SUNSHINETRUTH
“The late politican and businessman was a strong financial pillar to the party, particularly in Ilaje Local Government, at a time no one gave the party any chance of being entrenched.
“He was deeply involved in the building of what has turned into a formidable structure, both in Ilaje and in the State. To the party, this loss is irreplaceable.
“The younger Emuleomo, who died after a brief illness at 48 years, was deeply passionate about making Ondo South the commercial hub, as a basis for prosperity in the Sunshine State. He was a team player and jolly good fellow.
The party prays God to comfort his immediate family, Itebu Kunmi Community, his associates, and the State chapter of APC. It is also our desire that God should forgive his trespasses and accept his soul.
