“He was a member of the PDP Elders Council, a close confidant, trusted party leader, and reliable ally all through his lifetime.

“The loyalty he showed to the Saraki political family and his commitment to humanity’s service will never be forgotten,” Saraki said.

The PDP has also expressed heartfelt sadness over the demise of Yusuf, describing him as a compassionate and dependable party man.

The party in a condolence message signed by its state Publicity Secretary, Olusegun Adewara said, “The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State is grief-stricken and devastated to learn of the passing of one of the esteemed members of our Elders Council, a committed and loyal party man, Alhaji Suleiman Yusuf Kayode, popularly known as Maja.

“The death of such a graceful and compassionate elder, who was unwavering in his loyalty to the PDP and the Saraki political family until his last breath, has come to the party as a rude shock.

“Alhaji Maja was an embodiment of patriotism and selflessness, dedicated to the cause of the PDP and the betterment of Kwara State. He was a core politician, a true grassroots man who lived for the people around him.”
