Reacting to the demise, former deputy national chairman of the PDP, Chief Olabode George said: “The sudden, unexpected and very painful transition of Chief Filani indeed diminishes all of us who knew him well and associated with him far beyond the political landscape.” 

He was a man of warmth, full of devotion, enveloped within whatever cause he pursued with vigour and sheer honesty.”

He resonated with settled intelligence and far-reaching determined articulation.

He could be combative in debate, but without malice.” Lagos PDP chairman Moshood Salvador described him as “a perfect gentleman who never shied away from what he believed in.”
