A statement by the spokesman to the governor, Rafiu Ajakaye in Ilorin, said “Logun, an industrialist, a public intellectual, and an elder statesman died Tuesday evening of complications from COVID-19.”
“He died only a few hours after the result of his test returned positive,” the statement said.
“The state government and people of Kwara State have lost an outstanding civil servant who diligently served the state at various times, including as chief of staff to the governor from June 7, 2019, till he returned to his Lord.
“The governor has declared seven-day mourning in honour of the late Chief of Staff,” the statement added.
The governor commiserated with the family of the late Chief of Staff and the entire Ilorin Emirate for this tragic development, and prayed Allah to grant him Alijanat firdaus and as well as give the family the fortitude to bear the huge loss.
