The release of the details of late Senator Isiaka Adeleke's autopsy result has become sacrosanct to quell the spate of suspicious and mild unrest in Ede, Osun State.

 

Late Senator Isiaka Adeleke

 

Deji Adeleke, younger brother to the late first civilian Governor of Osun State, Senator Isiaka Adeleke, 62, has said the cause of the senator’s death has not been known not even by pathologists.

 

He said this on Wednesday at a press conference at the residence of the deceased. He said that the family was told that the report of the autopsy would take between one or two weeks to be ready, while urging the people to disregard claims in the social media that the senator was killed.

 

He urged his supporters to be calm, saying  Adeleke was not known for violence during his life time.

 

Tunji, one of the children of the Senator had alleged that his father, who was preparing to contest in the 2018 governorship election in the state was killed.

 

Although he did not state how he was killed, he said Adeleke, who was also the senator representing Osun-West at the Senate until his death, was killed by some forces because he stood a good chance of emerging the governor of the state again.

 

Tunji, who said this in a snapchat on Tuesday, said that some persons, who he did not name, eliminated his dad because they considered him a big threat to their ambition ahead of next year's election.
