“Osinowo was a true politician with zeal for progressive leadership. I pray our Party would get somebody like him. We should learn to be simple and take quest for offices very selfless. I pray that the Lord will bless his soul and give his family and our national leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu the fortitude to bear the loss,” Akinsola said.

"Pepper was a great politician of no mean feat. He would be missed by the progressive family as an undiluted party loyalist and grassroots mobiliser who contributed immensely to the enthronement of progressive politics in Lagos State", he said.
