‘While we belief that the death of the Frontline politician is owed to God, we are deeply concerned about the circumstances preceding his death as it concerns threat to his life. Ondo state has enjoyed peace politically over the years and we belief that irrespective of our aspirations and political leanings, we are brothers and will not play politics with life. We enjoying all political gladiators to play by the rules and maintain peace’
“We take comfort in the knowledge that Dr. Akintelure lived a life of integrity, impacted many lives positively, and left behind a legacy of honour and goodwill. Our prayers are with his family, and we ask the Lord to grant him eternal rest and grant his loved ones the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.” the statement concluded.
