Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko has described as great loss, shocking and untimely, the death of Abiodun Ibitola, Managing Director of Akure-based Remdel Optimum Communication and wife of former Editor of Sunday Punch, Mr Remi Ibitola.
Mr. Ibitola had confirmed the demise of his wife on Sunday, saying she died after a brief illness.
In a message issued by the Commissioner for Information, Kayode Akinmade, condoling with the family of the late communicator who made her mark in broadcasting, music production and film making, Governor Mimiko said her death came to him as a rude shock because “no one would have envisaged that the intelligent and brilliant broadcaster would leave us so suddenly.”
He said the late Abiodun Ibitola was a model and a peculiar professional who respected and adhered to the ethics of her profession strictly, thus distinguishing her among her peers.
