“Now, Tunde, our ‘one-man army’ is gone.
“I am devastated by this loss because, in everything that he did, Tunde was exemplary. He was committed to his work; courageous with his words and press statements, and a helping hand to everyone around him.
“Today, as we mourn our dear Tunde — our comrade, our friend, our brother, a father, a husband, a son, and most importantly, a champion in our fight — we celebrate the tremendous impact that he had on all of us throughout his life.
“My prayers are with his father, his wife, his children — and all the friends that he has left behind, who in the hours since his death, have rallied around his family and embraced them through their support.”
