The Vice Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, Prof. Wahab Olasupo Egbewole, SAN, has commiserated with the management, staff, and students of Ahman Pategi University, Patigi, on the death of its founder and Pro-Chancellor, Hon. Aliyu Bahago Ahman Pategi.
The former lawmaker died on Thursday at the age of 59 years.
In a statement issued by the Director of Corporate Affairs, Mr Kunle Akogun, on Friday (October 25, 2024), Prof. Egbewole, who is also the Chairman of the Consortium of Kwara Universities (KU8+), described the death of Hon. Pategi, the proprietor of a prominent member-university of the Consortium, as a rude shock and a sad loss.
The Vice Chancellor said that the death of Alhaji Ahman Patigi, who was a former Member of the House of Representatives, is a great loss not only to the deceased’s family but also to Kwara State, and the nation’s university system and particularly to KU8+.
Prof. Egbewole also commiserated with the Etsu Pategi, Alhaji Ibrahim Umar Bologi, and the entire people of Patigi Emirate on the death of an illustrious son and a shining light of the Emirate, saying that the late former federal law maker’s contributions to the promotion of education and advancement of his people’s general well-being would not be forgotten in a hurry.
The Vice Chancellor prayed Almighty Allah to overlook the shortcomings of the late politician, philanthropist, and statesman and comfort all the family members and associates he left behind.
