Gov. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has described the late Dr Wahab Adegbenro, Commissioner for Health, as a reliable colleague and compatriot.

Akeredolu made this known on Thursday on his official Twitter handle, @RotimiAkeredolu.

According to the governor, Adegbenro’s calmness and dedication toward caring for everybody was loved by all.

“He will be sorely missed. My heartfelt condolences to his family,” Akeredolu said.
