<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The governor described Orunsolu’s death as a great loss to the state and noted that the late Chief Imam spent his days praying and teaching values and precepts of the Quran.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">“Baba Orunsolu lived a dedicated , worthy and highly commendable life that will be remembered by posterity.
