Jide Tinubu reportedly died in Lagos in unclear circumstances. President Muhammadu Buhari sent in their condolences.<\/p>\n

Former President Goodluck Jonathan also sent in his condolences on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy deepest sympathies to Asiwaju and family on the great loss you have suffered. May God grant your son Jide repose in His Bosom. GEJ,\u201d the former president wrote.<\/p>\n

Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, also expressed sadness over the death of Jide Tinubu, who has been described as the first son of the All Progressives Congress national leader.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of the government and people of Delta State, I identify with the Tinubu family at this trying period,\u201d Mr. Okowa said in a statement signed by his chief press secretary, Ehiedu Aniagwu.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is painful to lose one\u2019s child but we are comforted by the fact that he lived a quiet but eventful life.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe in your capacity to overcome this painful loss. May the Lord grant you and your family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss,\u201d he said<\/p>\n

The Senate, through its president, Bukola Saraki, also condoled with the Tinubus, describing him as \u201ca promising young man who had what it takes to contribute to the overall wellbeing of his family in particular and the nation in general.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is highly unfortunate that we lost him so early and we are still pained by his demise.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe pray that God guards, guides and grants Asiwaju Tinubu, his wife, Senator Oluremi and the entire Tinubu family the grace and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss,\u201d Mr. Saraki wrote.<\/p>\n

The APC also sent its condolences via email signed by its spokesperson, Bolaji Abdullahi.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is never easy losing a child or any loved one. Indeed, it is hardest when they are taken from us too soon.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany who met the late Jide Tinubu, who was a lawyer, fondly described him as cerebral, industrious and full of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn this moment of grief, the Party offers its sincere condolence and deepest sympathy to His Excellency and other immediate family members over the painful loss.<\/p>\n

\u201cMay the outpouring of sympathy and the comfort in knowing that the late Jide\u2019s death is felt by many, help the family through this difficult time,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n
