Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu SAN, has joined other well-meaning Nigerians within and outside the country to pay tributes to the former Governor of the Old Ondo State, Late Evangelist Bamidele Olumilua as they bade him a final farewell.
At a Commendation Service, held in memory of the late Olumilua, in Akure, the State Capital, Governor Akeredolu described the former Governor as an icon, a complete, an astute politician and a manager of both human and material resources.
The Governor said Olumilua served the state meritoriously despite his short stay in office as a result of the 1993 military coup d’etat that brought in the General Sani Abacha-led regime.
Governor Akeredolu, once again, commiserated with the good people of Ondo and Ekiti states, saying the states and the entire country have lost a gem, but comforted with the worthy life he lived.
