Date: 2016-02-01

The Speaker of Kwara House of Assembly, Dr Ali Ahmad on Sunday said the sudden demise of Hon. Moses Afolayan, member representing Oke-Ero constituency in the House was a huge loss to the state.

The Speaker said this when he paid a condolence visit to the family of the departed member in llorin.

Ahmad urged the family to take solace in the fact that the deceased lived a life worthy of emulation.

He said "we all know that death is inevitable, but the manner it comes leaves much to be desired. We have lost a wonderful lawmaker and we are grieving too.

All we can say is for the family, especially the wife and children to remain strong, believing that he is resting with the Lord Almighty.

The House and the state in general will miss his commitment to duty, high sense of patriotism, humane disposition and robust contributions to issues and warmheartedness."

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Speaker was accompanied on the visit by Sen. Rafiu Ibrahim, representing Kwara South Senatorial District and some members of the state assembly.

Responding on behalf of the deceased's family, Mr Michael Jolaiya, thanked the Speaker and his entourage for the support and demonstration of love for the family.
