Deputy Senate President, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, hailed Osinowo as a grassroots politician who left his mark on the sands of time.
The Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, said the late Osinowo left a very deep impression that he was a friendly, jovial and unassuming person, even though he accomplished so much.
