He said, “I received the news of the transition of our brother, Prince Adebayo Adeyemi (De Gov) with shock and sadness.
“De Gov fought and won many battles with regards to his health and we all thought the worse was over. But we can only submit to the will of God, who gives and takes life.
“I commiserate with the immediate family of our dear brother, the Alaafin Royal Family and the people of Oyo.
“I equally express my condolences to the PDP family in the state and pray to God to grant repose to the soul of the late Prince Adeyemi.”
