Until his death, Brigadier-General Tuoyo served as military Governor of the then Ondo state between July 1978-October 1979 during the military regime of General Olusegun Obasanjo. He played active role in the enthronement democracy that eventually led to the handing over of the reins of power to late Pa Adekunle Ajasin, the first democratically elected Governor of the old Ondo state.

A release by Dr. Uduaghan’s Media Aid, Monoyo Edon which made the announcement, said Papa would be remembered as the father of the former Governor’s wife, Mrs. Roli Uduaghan and his demonstration of patriotism in virtually all his engagement in governance.
The family, however, prayed that Papa’s soul would find eternal rest in the bossom of the Lord.

The former Military Administrator of old Ondo State died Saturday December 17, 2022 in Lagos State at 84 years old.
A statement issued on Monday by media assistant to the former governor, Monoyo Edon, reads; “Late Brig.-Gen. Tuoyo was a retired Nigerian Brigadier General who served as the Military Governor of Ondo State (July 1978 – October 1979) during the military regime of General Olusegun Obasanjo.

“Brig. Gen Tuoyo will be remembered as the father of Her Excellency, Dcns Mrs. Roli Uduaghan, beloved wife of His Excellency, Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, CON, the Immediate Past Governor of Delta State and for his patriotism as well as immense contributions in the democratic process that led to the handing over of the reins of power to Pa Adekunle Ajasin (ascended), the first democratically elected Governor of Ondo State.

“Our prayers are with both families as we ask God to grant them strength to go through this difficult period.
“May Papa’s soul find repose in the bosom of our Lord…Amen!”, the statement added
