Olawale, popularly known as Omititi, slumped during the All Progressives Congress (APC) rally in Jos, on Tuesday, where the ruling party held a campaign inauguration for its presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

The cause of Omititi’s death is yet to be known. His death has thrown the State House of Assembly into mourning.

Omititi is said to be survived by three children, and his wife.

The spokesperson for the APC in Lagos State, Seye Oladejo, in his reaction to the development, described Olawale’s death as a tragic loss.

He said, “Sadly, we lost him and that is all I know. It happened in Jos; he was hale and hearty when we departed for Jos this morning on a chartered plane from Lagos. Unfortunately, we lost him in Jos, he did not make the trip back with us.”
