Joseph Tegbe leads delegation to Ogbomosho, visits late Akala and Soun’s residence

Earlier today, I led a delegation of party chieftains and supporters to the Opadoyin villa, Ogbomosho on a condolence visit to the Ogbomoso home of the late former governor of Oyo state Otunba Christopher Adebayo Alao Akala who passed on Wednesday 12th January, 2022.

We were received by the late governor’s widow Oluwakemi; Son, Honorable Olamiju Alao-Akala, Senator Brimoh-Yussuf, Hon Lawal and other members of the Akala political family.

I was utterly shocked by the sad news. The contributions, developments and accomplishments of Otunba, as a governor and leader of the party are noteworthy. I recollect how jolly he was when he hosted my wife and I, recently.

The Akala family, the good people of Ogbomoso and Oyo state at large are in our prayers.

In a related development, I was at the palace of the Soun of Ogbomosho to confer with the family of late Soun Ajagungbade on the preparations for the 40 Days Fidau prayers.
