Gov. Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, has condoled with the Sen. representing Oyo Central Senatorial District, Teslim Folarin, on the death of his wife, Angela Folarin.
Makinde, in a statement in Ibadan on Friday by his Special Assistant on Print Media, Moses Alao, described the late Angela, as an exemplary woman who played huge roles in the success of her husband, especially in politics.
He described the incident as a sad loss and prayed to God to give Sen. Folarin the fortitude to bear the loss.

“I received with sadness the news of the sudden demise of Mrs Angela Folarin, wife of my brother, Oloye Teslim Folarin, the Senator representing Oyo Central.
“This death is a sad loss to us in Oyo State, because Mrs Folarin was a symbol of courage and a great example for wives of politicians, as she stood by her spouse and gave courage to other women.
“I pray that the Lord grants repose to her soul and give everyone she left behind the fortitude to bear this loss,” Makinde stated. (NAN)
