ABN TV cannot independently verify these claims as the assembly is yet to issue a statement on the incident.
An APC chieftain, who craved anonymity, told ABN TV that he was still with Olawale at the weekend.
“We met at the residence of Senator Ganiyu Olanrewaju Solomon (GOS) on Sunday and exchanged pleasantries. He was looking very healthy.”
“Without preempting the circumstance, this could be high blood pressure. Whatever could have led to his death, this is so shocking and sad.”
