A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Aderonmu Sahid Adeshina, has expressed shock over the death of Musiliudeen Olaide Akinremi, member representing Ibadan North federal constituency in the house of representatives.
Popularly called Jagaban, the two-term lawmaker, had breathed his last last night at a private hospital in Abuja, the Nigeria capital.
The 51-year old is due for burial tomorrow in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
Aderonmu in a statement, condoled the family, friends as well as political group of the deceased, saying that the legislator did his best to alleviate the suffering of “our people in Ibadan North federal constituency.”
Saying that the deceased legislator did well as a representative of his people, Aderonmu explained that “I am saddened by the death of my brother and fellow APC chieftain, Prince Musiliudeen Olaide Akinremi, who until his death was representing our federal constituency.
“I remember that, motivated by the desires to give our people better representation, we were both aspirants in the build up to the 2019 election. He went on to clinch the house of representatives and he won. I am happy with his achievements as he used his position to assist our people.
”He was just in the first year of his second 4-year term when death struck last night. We are still shocked but as Muslims, death is part of everyday’s lives. Though nobody wants to lose his or her loved ones especially someone who is in his prime but we are consoled by the impacts he made.
”We will continue to miss a dear patriot. I commiserate with the family, friend, political group, APC in Ibadan North and Oyo in general over this loss,” he added.
