Ondo State governor, Rotimi Akeredolu is in a deepest regret right now, after suffering a heavy loss.
He just lost his mother, Grace Akeredolu.
The governor announced her passing away, in a statement on Thursday morning.
“My siblings and I announce, with deepest regret and total submission to the will of the Almighty, the passing into glory of our adorable, dutiful and ever doting mother, Lady Evangelist Grace Bosede Akeredolu, this morning,” he stated.
Mr Akeredolu added that the nonagenarian “died peacefully” in her sleep.
“Though saddened and by the departure of Maami, the one Abiyamo we knew, we are consoled with the knowledge that, even as she transits to eternity, she will be guided by the strong hands of the angels of the light in which she dwelt during her eventful and fruitful sojourn on the terrestrial plane,” he added.
The governor’s reference to deepest regret and sorrow is understandable, although the woman dies at 90, simply on account of the special place that mothers occupy in their hearts of their children.
