The Nigerian Institute of Public Relations, Ondo State Chapter (Ondo-NIPR), is deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Mr. Tayo Oluwatuyi, the Secretary to the Ondo State Government, on January 4, 2025.
Mr. Oluwatuyi was a distinguished public servant, celebrated for his exceptional leadership, selflessness, and unwavering dedication to Ondo State’s development. His remarkable tenure has left an enduring legacy in the state’s history, and his contributions to the growth and development of Ondo State will be deeply missed.

The Ondo-NIPR commiserates with the Government of Ondo State, the family of the deceased, and the Akure Community, where Mr. Oluwatuyi hailed from. We pray that God grants them the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss.

As a professional body, we recognize Mr. Oluwatuyi’s commitment to excellence, transparency, and accountability in public service. His leadership style and vision for Ondo State’s development have for quite a number of years, been a source of inspiration to many.

We urge all citizens to join us in mourning the loss of this exceptional leader. May his soul rest in eternal peace, and may his memory continue to inspire and unite the people of Ondo State.
