The Ibarapa All Progressives Congress (APC) Initiative has expressed deep shock and profound sadness over the sudden demise of the Oyo State APC Chairman, Chief Isaac Ajiboye Omodewu.
This is contained in a statement jointly signed by its Chairman, Hon. Wale Adeoye and Secretary, Alhaja Ramota Okemakinde.
The statement made available to newsmen on Wednesday in Ibadan, said that the tragic event occurred in the early hours of Monday, August 19 in the United States of America.
The group described Omodewu’s demise as a devastating loss to the progressive political family in Oyo State, saying the void created by his departure would be challenging to fill.
It said that the Oyo APC has lost a bridge-builder, grassroots mobiliser, political activist, seasoned strategist and a distinguished public servant.
The group described Omodewu as a seasoned strategist whose unmatched political acumen guided the APC to resounding victory in the 2023 general election, a success many deemed unachievable.
It extended heartfelt condolences to his immediate family, friends, associates, the State APC Executive Committee and the entire APC family in Oyo State.
The group prayed that God grants his family comfort and all of them the strength to endure this irreplaceable loss.
