The Caretaker Chairman-nominee for Ipokia Local Government Area of Ogun State, Saibu Mulero Adeosun, has been confirmed dead a few hours to his screening by the state House of Assembly.

Adeosun was one of the Chairmen-nominees of the 20 local government transition committees in Ogun State appointed by Governor Dapo Abiodun last week.

The deceased was expected to appear before the State House of Assembly Screening Committee on Wednesday for his confirmation but reportedly died a few hours to his screening.

According to a close family source, he woke up around 5am this morning and had already dressed up for a trip to Abeokuta to enable him to appear before the Assembly committee. But he decided to take a little rest and died at the process.

The deceased was a graduate of Mass Communication from Ogun State Polytechnic now Moshood Abiola Polytechnic.

He was a former Special Assistant and Senior Special Assistant to Ipokia local government chairman, and a two-time supervisor in the local government.

Adeosun was a member of the Ipokia Local Government Transition Committee in 2016 and a senior legislative aide in the National Assembly.

He is survived by his wife, Mulikat Adeosun and three children.
