The Speaker of the Ondo
State House of Assembly, Samuel Adesina Ajayi, has died according to sources in
the Ondo State house of Assembly.
The speaker whose absence
from the state parliament has been a source of worry for over three months
reportedly died last night at an undisclosed hospital in Lagos.
The speaker has been
battling with cancer for several month before his death.
Reporters could not
immediately confirm Mr. Adesina’s age, as the Ondo State governor’s
spokesperson Eni Akinsola said he could not confirm the death of the speaker.
The late Adesina represents
Odigbo constituency ii in the state house. He is also a member of the Labour
Party.
