Ogun Governor Visits INEC to Mourn Late Resident Electoral Commissioner
On Wednesday, Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun visited the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to extend his condolences to the staff following the death of Niyi Ijalaye, the state’s resident electoral commissioner.
During his visit, Governor Abiodun described Ijalaye as a compassionate and unassuming individual who consistently upheld the principles of truth and fairness in his role.
He reflected on Ijalaye’s significant contributions to the state’s democratic processes, noting that his calm and principled approach was instrumental throughout the election cycle—before, during, and after the elections.
Governor Abiodun expressed deep sorrow over Ijalaye’s passing, highlighting his steadfast commitment to ensuring that INEC adhered to the highest standards of integrity.
“I want to recognize and honor this diligent man, whose dedication and perseverance were evident in every aspect of his work with the commission,” Abiodun stated.
In her remarks, Mrs. Rabiat Titilayo Akinola, the Director of Finance and Accounts at INEC in Ogun State, called on the state government to extend its support to both the family of the late REC and the commission during this challenging time.
She emphasized the need for continued assistance and solidarity as the commission and Ijalaye’s family navigate this period of loss.
