Chairman of Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr Dominic Adegbola, died on Wednesday at the age of 73.
Spokesperson of the party, Barr Taofik Gani, said the party chieftain, who had taken ill for some days past and was receiving treatment, died at Gbagbada General Hospital, Lagos.
A Lagos High Court recently reinstated him as the party chairman in the State.
Dominic, a medical doctor, was a grassroots politician from the days of the defunct Action Group (AG) led by the Chief Obafemi Awolowo.
He had held several other political positions, including State SDP officer; State Chairman of PAC and National Chairman of APN (Founded by the late Jakande).
He had also contested Lagos State governorship on the platform of APGA, while he also contested the Lagos West Senatorial primary of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), a contest between him and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
