Segun Oni Calls On Ekiti Govt. To Immortalise Omotoso, Former Oodua GMD 

Oni expressed shock at the death of the former Group Managing Director ( GMD) of Odua Group of companies, Sir Remi Omotoso, who passed on at the age of 75.

In his condolence message on Saturday, Oni condoled with Governor Kayode Fayemi, the Ekiti State citizens and Omotoso’s family over the demise of the Ayedun Ekiti-born business mogul.

“For the sake of history and act of mentoring, the Ekiti state government should immortalise this erudite scholar and business guru to serve as a driving force to the coming generations that hard work and  humanitarian services  are rewarding and profitable,” Oni stated.

Oni, chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), described Omotoso as an outstanding Ekiti patriot, saying bestowing honour on such an illustrious son would serve as impetus for the coming generations.

The business guru died after a brief illness on June 4, 2020.

Oni  prayed God to grant “all of you the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss”, while also condoling with  the good people of Ekiti State  whom the late Omotoso had served selflessly and meritoriously on different occasions and in different capacities.

According to him, “We take solace in a life well spent and impacts positively felt across all the strata of Ekiti.

“His death and passing on to glory, was a celebration of  the end of  an eventful, rewarding, dedicated and productive life of this  excellent corporate icon, astute elder-statesman, committed patriot and a soldier of Christ.

“His exemplary leadership, outstanding contributions to humanity and indelible footprints will forever be etched in our memories and in the annals of the corporate world.”
