A newly appointed Commissioner in the Kwara State Local Government Service Commission, Olatunji Abel, has reportedly died in his sleep.

The commissioner-designate gave up the ghost 48 hours to his resumption at his new duty post.

A source close to the politician said he died of heart related ailment in his home after he returned from a trip to Abia state.

His associates and contemporaries have been paying tributes to him:

“Rest in peace Egbon Abel Tunji J. Officially, you’re to resume office tomorrow Monday 27th, April after your appointment by the Executive Governor of Kwara State as a Member, Local Government Commission, but death denied you that chance. Continue to rest on. Till we meet to part no more! Today, we just committed your body to the mother earth for the beginning of your everlasting journey. Heavy Heart.”
