The deputy governor’s parents, Chief Festus Famuagun, and his wife, Grace, were inconsolable when Governor Kayode Fayemi and his wife, Bisi, visited the bereaved family at Isato area of Ado Ekiti on Sunday.
The deceased’s mother, who is 80 years old, rhetorically asked the governor, “Kayode, where is Funmi? Kayode, where is your deputy?”
The governor, who was moved to tears by the question, intermittently removed his glasses to wipe tears from his face with his handkerchief. While the governor tried in vain to console the father, his wife also made attempts to console the mother but it was in vain.
Chairman of the Action Congress of Nigeria in Ekiti State, Chief Jide Awe, burst into tears during an interview with journalists at the residence of the deceased.
Awe, who had tried hard to fight tears, burst into tears as Olayinka was referred to as the late deputy governor. The ACN chairman described Olayinka as a pillar of support for the ACN and the government of the state.
