Tributes have been pouring in in honour of the late APC governorship aspirant Paul Akintelure.
The State Chairman Engr. Ade Adetimehin who described the deceased as a personal friend, with whom he had a good relationship over the years, said the news is shocking.
Akintelure was a highly refined and consistent political figure, whose position was that the essence of being in politics is to build the people and the land.
“The contributions of the departed political leader, to the development and stability of the Ondo State chapter of APC will not be forgotten.” he said
On its part, the Lucky Aiyedatiwa Campaign Organisation Foot Soldiers (LACO-FS) described the death as painful and benumbing.
“We grieve for this sudden passage of our great leader Dr. Paul Akintelure whose contributions to not just APC but above all, party politics and democracy in Nigeria, cannot be quantified,” the organisation’s convener Oladipupo Okeyomi said in a statement issued through the LACO-FS State Director of Information Kayode Fasua.
The campaign organisation while commiserating with the family of the deceased, said it has suspended its itinerary for the week in honour of the departed leader.
