Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A former chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Oyo State, Alhaji Afeez Tijani, is dead.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST gathered that Tijani died on Monday.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent recalls that Tijani served as PDP chairman during the administration of former Governor of the state, Senator Rasidi Ladoja.<\/p>\n

Tijani, until his death was the Special Assistant on Irepo\/Olorunsogo\/Oorelope Federal Constituency, to Governor Seyi Makinde.<\/p>\n

He had already served as Chairman of Irepo Local Government.<\/p>\n

Makinde while reacting described the death as shocking and sad.<\/p>\n

He commiserated with the immediate family of the late politician.<\/p>\n

Makinde in a statement made available to DAILY POST on Tuesday said, \u201cI received the news of the death of the Liaison Officer, Irepo\/Olorunsogo\/Oorelope Federal Constituency, Alhaji Afeez Tijani with sadness.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlhaji Tijani was a committed party man and a strong believer in the wellness of the PDP. He gave his best efforts to see the progress of the party and the state. We all will miss him.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is my prayer that God grants repose to his soul and receive him into Aljana Firdaus.<\/p>\n

\u201cI equally commiserate with his immediate family, Kisi Community and the PDP family in Oyo State.<\/p>\n

\u201cMay Allah continue to uphold everyone the deceased left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n
