Former governor of Oyo State Omololu Olunloyo is not dead, but in intensive care unit (ICU), the family said on Saturday.
A statement by the family said he was admitted at the University College Hospital (UCH) Ibadan.
“We appreciate the public for the interest shown in the well being of our father, Chief Dr. Victor Omololu Sowemimo Olunloyo (aka VOSO),” the statement said.
“In the tradition of the Olunloyo family of Ibadanland, and based on the principles of integrity, inclusion, and openness upon which our revered father VOSO has always stood, we would like to inform the Nigerian public that we would greatly appreciate your prayers for our father who is presently in the ICU at UCH Ibadan.
“As a public figure, we believe that his condition should not be hidden from the Nigerian public who have a right to know about their leaders.”
