Oh death, oh death, where is your sting, why now, why now,
The Speaker said he is short of words to describe how devastated he was when he received the sad news stressing that it is extremely painful for someone to lose a vabirant and committed officer like him who is obviously the pillar of his family at a critical time as this when his support will be needed most.
He described Mr Adeyemi Ibishagba as an outstanding technocrat, Administrator of repute, philanthropist and community leader who worked tirelessly for the overall development of not only Kabba/Bunu but the entire state.
He said, Mr Adeyemi Ibishagba aka, Protocol was an easy going man who tenaciously worked for the growth of his community, Okunland and humanity noting that it is too early to lose such a wonderful man.
