Hon. Micheal Bolodeoku, Senior Special Assistant on Produce to the Governor of Ondo State, has commiserated with the Ondo State Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Alhaji Amidu Takuro, over the death of his beloved father, the late Alhaji Idris Takuro.
The late Alhaji Idris Takuro passed away in the early hours of Thursday, 5th November, 2026.
In a condolence message, Hon. Bolodeoku described the death as a painful and heartbreaking loss, not only to the Takuro family, but to all who knew the late patriarch and benefitted from his wisdom, kindness and fatherly guidance.
He described the late Alhaji Idris Takuro as a *devout, humble, disciplined, God-fearing and highly respected elder* — a man of uncommon integrity, patience and generosity, whose life was defined by faith, hard work, humility and service to humanity.
According to Hon. Bolodeoku, Baba Takuro was a *peace-loving, principled and compassionate father*, who raised his children in the fear of Allah and instilled in them the values of honesty, loyalty, respect for elders, hard work and love for community. He noted that the good character, humility and dedication to public service which Alhaji Amidu Takuro is known for today are clear reflections of the excellent upbringing he received from his late father.
He said the late Alhaji Idris Takuro lived a fulfilled life, leaving behind a legacy of good name, strong family values, and a generation of children and grandchildren who will continue to cherish his memory and uphold all that he stood for.
Hon. Bolodeoku particularly sympathised with Alhaji Amidu Takuro, urging him to take solace in the fact that his father lived well, died in faith, and left behind a worthy legacy that will never be forgotten.
He prayed that Almighty Allah forgives the shortcomings of the deceased, accepts his good deeds, rewards his lifetime of devotion, and grants him eternal rest in Aljanah Firdaus.
He further prayed that Allah grants Alhaji Amidu Takuro, the entire Takuro family, friends and associates, the strength, patience and comfort to bear this irreplaceable loss.
May Almighty Allah grant the departed soul Aljanah Firdaus and comfort everyone he has left behind. Ameen.
