“He stood for the development of Lagos and he sure regrets that this Lagos is not as he wished. He will be forever remembered in Lagos Politics. We condole with his family.

“All PDP flags In the state shall fly at half-mast. All PDP meetings at this time are to be prayers for him.”

Gani also disclosed that the burial arrangements will be made public by the deceased family soon.
