Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has commiserated with Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra State on the death of his father, Pa Simeon Soludo, aged 92.

Sanwo-Olu, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Gboyega Akosile, on Monday, said that the nonagenarian led a fulfilled life.

He urged Mr Soludo, the deceased’s family, friends and associates, as well as indigenes of Umueze, Isuofia community and the people of Anambra State to immortalise the good name of the late nonagenarian.

”On behalf of the good people of Lagos State and my adorable wife, Ibijoke, I sympathise with my colleague, Governor Charles Soludo, on the demise of his beloved father, Pa Simeon Soludo.

”I also send my heartfelt condolences to the entire Soludo family and the people of Anambra State over the death of the governor’s father. The elderly and wise counsel of Pa Soludo would be sorely missed, not only by his family but the entire people of Umueze, Isuofia community and the entire people of Anambra State.

”I pray God will grant Pa Simeon Nwankwo Soludo eternal rest and grant the family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss,” he said.
