Announcing the sad development on his Facebook page, the Executive Assistant to the Governor on Communication Dr. Fred Latimore, said he last had a conversation with the deceased in Owa Alero, presumably during the burial ceremony of the Governor’s dad. “Gone to soon. We talked last at Owa Alero. Adieu Chief Barr. Mary Iyasere”, Latimore wrote.
