Oyo Speaker Adebo Ogundoyin mourns corps member's death

Adebo Ogundoyin, the Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly, expressed profound sorrow over the death of Oluwatosin Abidakun, a serving member of the National Youth Service Corps, who died in a road crash on Monday. The incident occurred in Ibadan, where an articulated truck collided with multiple vehicles near Agodi Gardens, resulting in Abidakun being crushed.

She was returning home after her day’s work at the Assembly, riding on a motorcycle with another corps member, who sustained injuries and is currently receiving treatment at the University College Hospital in Ibadan. Ogundoyin described the loss as “painful and devastating,” emphasizing that Abidakun's death was particularly heartbreaking as she had just begun her national service with aspirations for the future.

He extended condolences to her family, friends, and colleagues, and expressed concern for the surviving corps member's recovery.
