The chairman of the Ogun State Park Management Services (OGSPAM), Akeem Bodunrin, popularly known as Iyeru, has died.

Colleagues of the late OGSPAM boss told the Peoples Gazette that he died on Saturday evening at his residence in Ogun State.

The cause of his death is, however, yet to be ascertained.

The state police spokesperson, Oluseyi Babaseyi, has yet to respond to an enquiry by The Gazette about Mr Bodunrin’s death as of the time of filing this report.

The OGSPAM is among the groups that manage motor parks and transportation operations in Ogun State.
