According to Osinbajo’s spokesperson, Laolu Akande, immediately after his death, the VP aborted his trip to Lagos to visit the family and pay his last respect.
He added that Osinbajo expressed his personal regrets and is very saddened by the loss.
His words, “He decided to come today to personally express his condolence, the wife, the children and the community and to say that himself and the federal government of Nigeria will continue to support the family and do everything necessary to comfort this family.
“He also expressed his personal regrets; he is very greatly saddened by what has happened and decided to come and show it personally.
“Everyone knows that this is a government that is very high on compassion and the vice president himself is somebody that values that kind of relationship.
“I can tell you right away that won’t a problem for this family.
“The Federal Government would do everything that is right and that is worthy of a diligent and hard working officer like Inspector Aliyu Gomina.”
