“Chief Awosedo was a true democrat. An achiever par excellence. He was among the aspirants that fought for the governorship ticket of our party in the build up to the 2011 governorship election. When he saw that he could not realise his ambition on the platform of the PDP, he joined the Labour Party where he eventually contested the 2011 governorship election.”

“But, we cannot query the Almighty God. He is the giver of life and to Him, we shall all return,” he added.

The party, however, condoled with the Awosedo’s family on the irreplaceable loss and prayed God to grant him eternal rest.
