Spokesman for the family, Olayinka Owolewa, confirmed that the shadow representative of the United States House of Representatives for the District of Columbia, will arrive at the Tunde Idiagbon International Airport, Ilorin at about 9:00 a.m.

Spokesman for the family added that the 34-year-old pharmacist will be received by Governor AbdulRahaman AbdulRazaq of Kwara, before proceeding to his town, Omu-Aran, where he will be received by Olomu of Omu-Aran, Oba Abdulraheem Adeoti.

He is expected to be hosted by Omu-Aran Development Association (ODA), on Tuesday in Omu-Aran, at a time and venue that would later be communicated to invitees.
