The ex-governor and former president of the Nigerian Bar Association, died on the 27th of December, last year, after protracted ailment.

In a statement issued by the party spokesperson, Alex Kalejaye, APC recalled some of the landmark decisions of the former governor, including the creation of a security network (Amotekun), to protect residents of the state from invaders, and the aggressive drive for industrialization of the State.

The party stated that the fly-over of the bridge in Akure which is ongoing, with the commitment of Governor Lucky Ayedatiwa, the completed interchange in Ore, on the ever-busy Benin-Sagamu Road, has drastically reduced carnage in that section, and ensured the unhindered flow of traffic.

The statement further stated that “Arakunrin also ran away with credits for the first dualised road in Akoko land, besides bringing down Oke Alabojuto, which had caused so many very costly accidents in the past years.

“He led a government that undertook to offset many months of unpaid salaries and other liabilities without qualms and broke the jinx of unemployment into state government agencies and departments.

“The contributions of the departed governor in all sectors, including Health, Education, road construction, and repairs cannot be over-emphasized.

“The Amotekun General further served as chairman of the South West Governors’ Forum, and mouthpiece for the then-Southern governors. He was an unrepentant advocate for justice, fair play, and true democracy.’’
