CNPP MOURNS ALAO AKALA, SAYS IT’S A NATIONAL LOSS


 

The Southwest Chairman of the Conference of Nigerian Political Parties (CNPP), Alhaji Yinka Olona and the current National Vice Chairman of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), Deacon Samson Olusegun Olalere have expressed condolences on the death of the former Governor of Oyo State,  Otunba Christopher Alao Akala, who passed on the 12th day of January 2022, aged 71 years.

The duo described Akala’s death as a great loss to Nigeria, Oyo State, and his place of origin, Ogbomosho. They also pointed out that the deceased discharged his duties as the Deputy Governor and Governor of Oyo State with a great measure of fairness and firmness and left some legacies he would be remembered.

According to them, It was during Akala’s tenure that CNPP was facelifted and given due recognition by any sitting governor. He appointed many members and discovered many voiceless voices.

“Akala was a man of the people who was very much concerned about their welfare and ever ready to solve problems brought to his attention.” The statement said.

The duo acknowledged the contributions of the deceased to the political community, adding that the late Governor was a big player in the political sector beyond the shores of Southwest.

CNPP finally prayed God to grant the family and associates of the deceased the fortitude to bear the loss, urging them to be consoled by the legacies of service, selflessness and excellence he left behind.
