A former Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum, Dr Kayode Fayemi, on Wednesday, expressed his condolences on the death of the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State, Paul Omotoso.

The former Governor of Ekiti State, made this known in a statement signed by the head of his media office, Ahmad Sajoh,  describing Omotoso as a committed leader, unifier, and key figure in the party and the state.

He said; “Under his stewardship, our party achieved significant victories in recent elections, gaining the trust of our people. This would not have been possible without his commitment to uniting our members and working selflessly for the greater good of our state and nation.

“Omotoso’s contributions and sacrifices for our party will never be forgotten. He was a man of integrity who led by example, inspiring the party faithful with his passion for service and dedication. His leadership kept us united and focused on our mission even in the face of challenges.

“Ekiti State and the APC have lost a pillar, a grassroots mobilizer, and a committed leader. We mourn this devastating loss, but we take solace in the lasting legacy and sterling example he leaves behind."

Fayemi, therefore,  praised the late Omotoso as a dedicated leader and unwavering advocate of the APC’s principles and agenda in Ekiti State.
