The spokesperson for the corps, Yusuf Idowu, during an interview with newsmen, explained that Ogundiran suddenly took ill and could not be revived.

Idowu said Ogundiran, who until his death served as the Provost of the B Division at the Ila-Orangun Command, “Collapsed unexpectedly and was later confirmed deceased,” noting that the death left a profound void within the Corps and the larger security community in Osun State.

In a condolence message signed by the Osun Amotekun Corps Commander, Mr. Adekunle Omoyele, made available to journalists in Osogbo, the organisation condoled the late Ogundiran’s family, friends, colleagues, and the entire community of Ila-Orangun.

The Corps Commander subsequently reaffirmed the Osun Amotekun’s commitment to honouring the memory of fallen officers by upholding the values and standards they lived and worked for.

He assured that appropriate support would be extended to the family of the late officer.
