Adeleke: Osun Deputy Gov appears before coroner, explains why she sat next to the deceased

Admin May 16, 2017

 Deputy Governor of the State of Osun, Mrs. Titi Laoye-Tomori, has appeared before the coroner ordered by Governor Rauf Aregbesola to probe the death of Senator Isiaka Adeleke; stating that she refused the seat prepared for her and sat beside the late Adeleke on account of the Senator’s humility and respect for her.

Laoye-Tomori said she waived her immunity to appear personally before the coroner because of the importance of the probe.

The deputy governor and the late Adeleke were together at the burial ceremony of the grandmother of the APC Senatorial Chairman in Osun West Senatorial District, Mr. Amobi Akintola before his death. The burial was the last public outing of the late senator before his sudden and dramatic death.

She tendered her manifest for April 22 as an exhibit before the coroner led by Mr. Olusegun Ayilara.

She told the coroner how the late Adeleke came to receive her upon her arrival at the ceremony and showered her enormous respect which prompted her to accompany the senator to his seat and settled on the seat beside him and shunning the seat kept for her by protocol.

She said the man who sat next to Adeleke vacated his seat for her and she sat next to him.
