Mr. Ayodele Adu, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Economic Matters, has passed.
A condolence message by Olayinka Oyebode, Special Assistant on Media to Dr Kayode Fayemi, Minister of Solid Minerals Development, affirmed his passing.
In the message, Fayemi commiserated with the Adu family and said the loss was a shock and has robbed the All Progressives Congress of a prominent man.
The late Adu served on the board of Fountain Investment Company Limited of the Ekiti State Government while Fayemi was governor of the state.
“He was a man of courage, character and conviction, who had a great passion for the Ekiti Project. It is indeed a painful loss. We shall surely miss him.
“May God grant him eternal rest and give his family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss,” the message read.
