Sanwo-Olu Mourns As Lagos APC Treasurer Dies
The governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has expressed regret over the death of Sumbo Ajose, the Treasurer of the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress.
Ajose died in the United States on July 13, 2021, while undergoing treatment for an unidentified illness.
She died when she was 55 years old.
The late party treasurer was praised by the governor as a “trustworthy, committed, and exceptionally loyal politician who was a wonderful asset to the Lagos APC.”
This was said in a statement signed by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Gboyega Akosile, headed “Sanwo-Olu Mourns Lagos APC Treasurer, Sumbo Ajose.”
“The death of the treasurer of our party, Sumbo Ajose, is a painful and big loss to me personally, Lagos APC, the deceased family and friends. I am saddened by the passage of this indefatigable, devoted, loyal and committed democrat and team player who played remarkable roles in the success of our party during her lifetime.
“She will be missed by her family, friends and the entire political class, particularly Lagos APC State Executive Committee, chieftains and members of the party across the State,” Sanwo-Olu was quoted as saying.
The governor prayed that God would grant ”the soul of our beloved Sumbo Ajose eternal rest and comfort the immediate and political family of the deceased”.
