Ijalaye, who reportedly collapsed and died on Monday in Abuja, shortly after a meeting at INEC’s headquarters, appeared in good spirits throughout the meeting before returning to his hotel room at the Bon Octagon Hotel in the Federal Capital Territory.

“I sympathise with the entire Ijalaye dynasty, the people, and the government of Ondo State on the passing of their great and illustrious son; indeed, Ijalaye was an exemplary figure of diligence, commitment, and honesty in public service.
“While his death came as a rude shock to us in Ogun State, we take solace in the fact that he lived a fulfilled life of integrity and indelible impact; may God rest his soul and protect the family he left behind,” the statement read.
