President Muhammadu Buhari has condoled with government and people of Ogun, Ekiti and Oyo states over the death of former military Governor and Administrator, Gen. Adetunji Idowu Olurin.
President Buhari, in a statement issued Saturday by his spokesman, Femi Adesina, joined family, friends and professional colleagues in mourning the military officer, who he said served the country meritoriously in his career.
The President, who said the deceased extended support when he was called upon as military Governor in Oyo State, and later as Administrator in Ekiti State, added that he was outstanding as ECOMOG Commander in Liberia.
President Buhari noted Gen. Olurin’s efforts in community development, particularly in his state, Ogun, by willingly putting his experience and knowledge at the service of various governments.
The President prayed that the Almighty God would grant the departed soul eternal rest, and comfort his family.
