The Police Commissioner for Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Olatunji Disu, has lost his son, Kaka, in an auto crash.

The fatal auto crash, which happened Monday night, claimed the life of Kaka Disu, who just concluded his one year compulsory National Youth Service Corp (NYSC), at the Ministry of Tourism, Abuja.

Source close to Disu’s family said the news of his son’s demise has left him, family members and friends devastated.

The police commissioner, who was unaware of the looming tragedy, had earlier paid a condolence visit to DPO Ushafa Division, CSP Sambo, following the unfortunate loss of his beloved son.

During the visit, the CP conveyed heartfelt sympathies to CSP Sambo and his family, offering words of comfort and assurance of the Command’s unwavering support in this moment of grief.

Speaking on behalf of the FCT Command, the CP prayed for the peaceful repose of the departed soul and for divine strength to uphold the family through this irreplaceable loss.

A statement by spokesperson FCT Command, SP Josephine Adeh, said, “The entire FCT Police Command stands in solidarity with CSP Sambo and his family during this difficult time and extends its deepest condolences to them.”

Meanwhile, the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has commiserated with Disu, on the death of his son, Adam Kaka Disu.

Sanwo-Olu said the tragic loss of Adam Disu in a car accident on Monday night while travelling came to him as a rude shock.

Expressing his heartfelt sympathies, the governor, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Gboyega Akosile, urged the family and friends of the deceased to take the death in good faith.

“No doubt, the death of a loved one, especially a recent graduate, who had just completed his one-year National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme, is painful and shocking as it is irreparable, but we must always take solace in God.

“On behalf of my family, the government and the people of Lagos State, I sympathise with CP Tunji Disu, a former Commander of the Rapid Respond Squad (RRS) of the Lagos Police Command, on the loss of his son.

“I also send my condolences to the entire family and friends of the deceased. I pray that God will grant the late Adam Kaka Disu eternal rest and grant the family, particularly the parents, the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.”
