Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has described as painful and shocking the death of the Chairman of the International Vocational, Technical and Entrepreneurship College (IVTEC) Hon. Ayodele Shittu, praying the Almighty God to comfort the family and grant the departed statesman al-jannah Firdaus.

"The Governor received the news of this death with rude shock. It is a very painful development and a sad loss to the state because the former Deputy Speaker was not just a respected APC leader with widespread goodwill across political divides but he was also a prominent community figure in Offa and the state," according to a statement by the Governor's spokesman Rafiu Ajakaye.

"The Governor commiserates with the entire Offa community, especially the family of the late politician. He expresses his deep concern over this loss, and prays that Almighty God comfort the family and repose the soul of Hon. Ayodele Shittu."
