Jakande’s son Seyi urges leaders to emulate father’s humanitarian services

Seyi, the son of late Alhaji Lateef Jakande,    has urged present leaders to emulate his late father’s humanitarian endowments  to  society which he exhibited when he was actively in service as the governor of Lagos State.
Jakande, the first civilian Governor of Lagos State and a former Minister of Works and Housing, died on Thursday in Lagos at the age of 91.
Seyi, the third son of the late former governor, said at the late Jakande’s residence that: “Though time constraint will not allow me to say much,  but my late dad’s legacy is out there and will speak for itself.
“My dad had a deep passion for service to humanity. That is what led to his administration then to build low cost housing units and public schools for the masses.
“This No.7, Bishop St. , Ilupeju, is the house he was living when he served as the governor of Lagos State and when he was also a minister until date before his demise.
“May his soul rest in peace,” his son said.
