The Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi, has declared Friday, April 26, 2013 a work free day for the burial of the late Deputy Governor of the State, Mrs Funmilayo Olayinka.

The Commissioner for Information, Mr  Tayo Ekundayo, who disclosed this to reporters on Sunday via a telephone conversation, said  all government offices and  public schools should remain closed throughout that  day in honour of the late Deputy Governor.

Ekundayo said that the decision was taken by the state government to allow the people of the State to pay their last respect to the late Deputy Governor, whom he described as a reliable co-pilot to Governor Kayode Fayemi  that had made the transformation agenda of the present government  realisable.

The Commissioner had on Wednesday  revealed that the husband of the late Deputy Governor, Arch Lanre Olayinka and the family, had consented  that the lady be buried in Ekiti, following the intervention of the Ewi of Ado Ekiti, Oba Rufus Adeyemo  Adejugbe and members of his council. - Leadership
