A statement after the visit reads:
“On a condolence visit to the wife and family of Late senator Gbenga Aluko, it was a very solemn and sober occasion at the residence of our departed brother, friend and associate in Asokoro, Abuja.
We expressed our shock and sadness at his sudden departure from this world. We conveyed to the wife our sincere condolences and that of our other friends, and His colleagues of the 4th senate (1999 senators), where he was also a principal officer. We assured the wife and family of our continued love and support. And that they are in our thoughts and prayers.
We prayed that God will uphold the family and all his loved ones and grant them the fortitude and strength to bear this very sad loss.
Importantly, we stated that, Senator Gbenga Aluko selflessly served Nigeria, he was a global citizen, a perfect gentleman, a truly detribalised Nigeria, and a great Nigerian.
He was unreservedly committed to his people of Ekiti State. We would sadly miss him. May his soul rest in peace and May his memory be a blessing. Amen”.
