Lam Adesina Pronounced Dead by deshysmalls(m): 12:00pm On Nov 11, 2012


Reports reaching our newsdesk indicate that erstwhile governor of Oyo State and chieftain of leading opposition party, the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Alhaji Lam Adesina is dead.
The former governor passed on at the age of 73 and would be committed to mother earth at his country home in Ibadan today according to Islamic Rites.

Born January 20, 1939 the late Adesina was a renowned educator who mounted the throne of leadership of Oyo State on May 29, 1999 on the platform of the Alliance for Democracy (AD) party.

He attended Loyola college in Ibadan bofore proceeding to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka from 1961-1963.

The political stalwart also studied at the university of Ibadan in 1971.
Before veering into politics, Adesina worked in private educational institutions.

Efforts to reach the Oyo state Commissioner for Information Barr. Bosun Oladele and CAN Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed were fruitless, but an insider said the death of Adesina has stirred a murky cloud in the ancient city.

Hmm! Shocking. R.I.P Lam. Death like this reminds me of the book of THE PREACHER. Where Solomon said, "one thing gladens my heart. The RICH and the POOR will all DIE". Vanity upon vanity. Only if we think this deep and see reality in this, there won't be need too loot and loot and starve your fellow humans. Hmm! God made us to leave as simple as we can...but humans are thus making it complex for themselves. Oma se' o
