This is certainly not a good time for the Tinubu family as another promising member of the family who also doubled as the Special Adviser to Governor Akinwunmi Ambode on Commerce and Industry, Mr Deji Tinubu slumped and died on thursday, 25 of January, 2018.

It was gathered by MegaXpression Magazine that Deji, who was the former Chairman of Lagos State Sports Commission, died during a novelty match in Epe where the Lagos State Executive members and other top government functionaries are having a Retreat.

It was gathered that Mr. Deji Tinubu, Special Adviser on Sports before he was recently redeployed as Special Adviser to the Governor on Commerce and Industry slumped in the field and was confirmed dead at Epe General Hospital.

It will be recalled that a couple of months ago, the family of Tinubu lost a young promising lawyer who is the Son of the former Governor of Lagos state and key figure of APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Deji Tinubu is said to be a nephew of Asiwaju Tinubu.

"Deji to me was a fine gentleman who has all the qualities of a great Lagosian, We will surely miss him as I and the entire iCARE Foundation commiserate with Tinubu family", Hon Babajimi Benson explained.

"Mr. Deji Tinubu is a worthy Sports Administrator. During his life time he succeeded in changing the face of Sports in Lagos State and by extension in Nigeria. Sports lovers will miss him dearly," said by Hon. Adebimpe Akinsola.

In his remarks, Hon SOB Agunbiade said, "We spend each day with the  high hope that tomorrow will surely come, hmmmm..one day the tomorrow will refuse to come for each and every one. Life is  surely a voyage  of probability and that is why  what is most certain is uncertainty.

"May the Almighty Allah grant the Tinubu Family, the fortitude to bear the loss and grant the departed soul of Deji  the grace of Aljanah. very shocking indeed", he concluded.
