……late Osinowo will be remembered for his brand of politics, which was rancour free and devoid of bitterness says Gov. Dapo Biodun
A former Political Adviser to ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, Dr. Gbolade Osinowo has died.
Apart from serving as Political Adviser to Obasanjo, Osinowo who hailed from Ijebu Igbo in Ogun State, was also Chief of Staff to late President Umaru Yar’adua.
He was Secretary of the Board of Trustees of the African Democratic Congress, when OBJ’s Coalition for Nigeria Movement adopted the Party.
Governor Dapo Abiodun in a condolence statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, on Friday, described the death of the late Odofin of Ijebu Igbo, as another loss, not only to Ogun state but Nigeria.
He said the deep and wide political experience of the former Special Adviser (Politics) to Obasanjo, will be sorely missed.
According to the governor, late Osinowo lived a life of service, dedication to the development of his immediate community and the state.
Abiodun added that the consummate politician will be remembered for his brand of politics, which was rancour free and devoid of bitterness.
Dr. Osinowo was a quintessential politician, an illustrious son of Ijebu-Igbo, in Ogun State, who impacted positively on everyone he met on the way.
