The Kwara State political circle was sent into mourning mood few days back when the news of the death of a frontline politician, Alhaji Yusuf Aiyedun spread.

The late Aiyedun was a longtime associate of the late Wazinrin of Ilorin, Dr Sola Saraki and he also served as state PDP Chairman.

He was the head of the party in the state during the 2011 election that brought the incumbent governor, Alhaji Abdul Fatah Ahmed as governor and Senator Bukola Saraki as senator. His son, Akeem Aiyedun also represented Ekiti/Irepodun\Isin/Oke-Ero federal constituency in the House of Representatives from 2011 to 2015.
