“The President remembers that the late industrialist was one of the early groups of private individuals to support government intervention in the fight against the COVID-19 scourge, donating handsomely to the fund.

“He condoled with the Government and people of Oyo State, particularly the Olubadan-in-Council on the loss of the Parakoyi of Ibadanland whose immeasurable contributions to development and progress of his community and country remained paramount till the very end.

“President Buhari also commiserated with Organized Private Sector on the departure of a key member whose imprints in various sectors will remain indelible.
