The Chairman Senate Committee on Appropriations, Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Ogun West) has adopted the three children of his murdered aide, Mr. Adeniyi Oluwatosin Sanni.
According to Vanguard, the Director General of his campaign organization, Barrister Babatunde Raji-Label in Lagos at the funeral in RCCG RHEMA CHAPEL, Redemption Camp in Mowe, said Senator Adeola has adopted Moraraoluwa, Oluwashindara and Oluwafeyidara Sanni as his children henceforth.
He added that the welfare of his aged mother and immediate family will be catered for on a monthly basis
“It impossible for me to find a replacement for Niyi. He is my blood and a dedicated aide of almost two decades. I am greatly grieved by his unwarranted death. As a father figure to him, I had to stay away from his funeral as tradition demands”, he stated.
Senator Adeola disclosed that a Trust fund he established with a donation and contributions from friends, associates and colleagues yielded N55 million in less than a week and the fund has been applied to pay for the children’s education in their present institution with adjustment for increases for the next 6 to 10 years of their education.
Senator Adeola thanked all those who commiserated with him and members of Mr. Sanni’s Family with a prayer that God Almighty will grant all the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
Sanni was killed on August 5, 2023, after an encounter with security agents at a check point in Ojodu Berger area of Ikeja and his body was dumped in the Oshodi area.
