A frontline governorship aspirant under the All Progressives Congress, APC, Alhaji Yunus Akintunde, yesterday visited the family of late ex-member of Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon. Ganiyu Waliu at his Oyo residence.
Waliu died on Monday October 30th in Oyo at age 45.
Akintunde, a kinsman of the deceased, while consoling the widow, children and family members, urged them to be calm and continuously offer prayers for the late politician.
