Innalilahi Wahinah illayihi rojihun. With deep regret and sympathy, Bola Ahmed Tinubu Solidarity Vanguard (BATSV) condoles with the Principal and Mentor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the demise of his Chief Security Officer, late Alhaji Lateef Raheem whose untimely exit occurred early today. “Lati” as fondly called by the Principal was a consummate person with good spirit, generally accommodative and friend of all.

The National Chairman BATSV, Dr. Dare Owotomobi said the deceased would be missed by Jagaban, who loved and trusted him when alive for his loyalty.

Dr Owotomobi recalled that amidst confrontation between Obasanjo led Federal Government and Asiwaju as the then Lagos State Governor, the late Security Officer was arrested, tortured by the Department of State Security to garner information from him in order to implicate his boss, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. Late Lati’s place of abode was ransacked thoroughly before he was later released.

The National Chairman said the torture that he received then made him developed some health challenges that he nursed till his eventual demise.
The Jagaban political family will definitely miss his departure around the principal.

BATSV prays Allah to grant him forgiveness and give him a space in AL – Janat Fridaous.

Dr. Owotomobi also wishes Almighty Allah to give the families, friends, colleagues and most importantly, our principal, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.

Farohun Waroyanu Wajana.
