Lalong commiserates with Lagos State over loss of assembly member

Plateau State Governor and Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Simon Bako Lalong has commiserated with the people and government of Lagos State over the demise of late House of Assembly member, Hon. AbdulSobur Olawale who died in Jos shortly after attending the APC presidential campaign flag-off.

Governor Lalong, who escorted the corpse of the deceased lawmaker to the Yakubu Gowon Airport Heipang for onward movement to Lagos for burial said he was shocked over the death of the lawmaker.

The governor expressed heartfelt sympathy and condolences to the immediate family, friends and associates of the late lawmaker, his constituents and to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Lalong described the death of the lawmaker as a huge blow to the Lagos State House of Assembly where he served the people of Mushin Constituency 2 with courage, determination and passion.

He said the commitment of the deceased lawmaker to the cause of the APC and the candidacy of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu ensured that he not only mobilised support for the party and the candidate, but also motivated him to come all the way to Jos to be part of the flag-off of the Tinubu/Shettima presidential campaign.
