Senator Isiaka Adeleke: More details emerge on his death...

Senator Isiaka Adeleke has died at the age of 62.
The three-term Senator currently represents Osun West Senatorial district having won the election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in 2015.

Adeleke died Sunday at Bikets Hospital in Oshogbo, the Osun state capital, after suffering a heart attack according to family sources.
Adeleke, the first civilian governor of Osun state, in 2014, dumped the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
At an event in Osogbo, the Osun state capital, while leading thousands of his supporters to defect to APC, Adeleke noted that with the alleged assault on him by the then Minister of Police Affairs, Jelili Adesiyan, and candidate of the PDP, Iyiola Omisore‎, he and his followers were no longer safe in the party.

The former governor claimed he was called upon by the leaders of the PDP to contest the governorship seat in Osun having realised that Omisore stood no chance against the incumbent governor, Rauf Aregbesola.
He said he was thereafter betrayed and hounded.
“I am happy to be in the progressives. I was a governor under the Social Democratic Party (PDP) which was a progressive party, I was fully involved in the struggle for June I2″, Adeleke said.
