Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, mourns the passing of the first executive chairman of Adavi local government area, Ozigi Asema Maiyaki, who died in the early hours of Wednesday at his home in Ogaminana.


In a condolence message to his family, issued through his Special Adviser on Media, Hon. Ismaila Isah, the Governor noted that he received the news of the passing of Adayi Ozigi Asema with profound shock, recounting his contributions to community development and the unity and cohesion of the All Progressives Congress in Adavi local government as a respected party man and a community leader.



“I recalled that Adayi Ozigi Asema was among the first political leaders I visited for consultation in the build up to the governorship election in 2023 and his wise counsels and support was part of the processes that led us to victory in the election especially in Adavi local government. His support will be dearly missed even as we give thanks to Almighty Allah for his leadership and service to our people during his life time,” he noted.


Governor Ododo commended the legacy of the pioneer chairman of Adavi local government area, describing him as a pacesetter whose experience defined the path of development in the local government in areas of infrastructure and human empowerment.


He prayed for the peaceful repose of his soul and urged his family and the entire people of Adavi local government to find comfort in the enduring legacy of the former chairman.


The late Ozigi Asema Maiyaki served as the first elected chairman of Adavi local government area on the platform of the National Republican Convention (NRC) from 1991 to 1993 and has remained politically active until his death on Wednesday at the age of 74.
