Gov. Godwin Obaseki of Edo has mourned the demise of the Chairman of the state chapter of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Mr Sunny Osayande.
This is contained in a statement signed by the governor and made available to newsmen on Sunday in Benin.

The governor said that Osanyande was calm and had balanced disposition whenever labour disputes arose.
