President Muhammadu Buhari has shared the grief with family members, friends and associates of distinguished Elder of the Yoruba Tennis Club and past President of Nigerian Institute of Structural Engineers, Arole Ezekiel Iyiola Omisore, who passed on at 96.
President Buhari affirmed the dutifulness, courage and inspiration that Omisore brought into work and life, remaining humble and warm even in his 90’s, with evidence of influence as a bridge for those that were climbing up, and pillar for the downtrodden.
The President noted the remarkable contributions of the engineer to development of the country, employed by then Government of Western Region, Ministry of Works, as the first Nigerian Structural Engineer before he left to start the Engineering section of Design Group as an Associate Partner.
The President urged family members and friends to approximate the good works of Arole Omisore, who was also “Gbobaniyi” of Ile-Ife, “Alatunse” of Cathedral Church Of the Anglican, Ile-Ife and Asiwaju Okunrin of Christian Association of Nigeria.
President Buhari prayed that his soul will find rest with the Lord.
