Nigeria Union of Journalists, Osun State Council has declared three days mourning period in honour of its member, Mr Tunde Adeyemo, who died in the early hours of Monday.
Adeyemo, who until his death was the Chairman of the Sound State Broadcasting Corporation, OSBC, chapel of the union, died after a brief illness.
A statement by the Chairman of the Union, Comrade Wasiu Ajadosu and Secretary, Comrade Bukola Elufadejin said the union will put all its activities on hold within the mourning period.
The statement noted that late Adeyemo who worked with OSBC before his death was a committed and dedicated member of the union.
“The vacuum he left as the chairman of OSBC chapel of the union would be very difficult to fill by the state council.
“The Union however takes solace in the fact that late Adeyemo lived a fulfilled life and his service in the vineyard of the Lord and humanity cannot be underestimated.
“It is the prayer of the union that God Almighty will grant the family,relatives and NUJ the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss,” it said.
