The Imesi Ekiti-born politician, it was gathered, died late Tuesday night after a brief illness.
Another source close to APC hierarchy in the state said he gave up the ghost in the early hours of Wednesday.
But, the State publicity secretary of the party, Mr Segun Dipe, who confirmed the development, could not give the cause of the APC chairman’s death or any other information about the incident.
Meanwhile, a top official of Ekiti State Government, who confirmed the incident, said, “Yes, the APC State chairman is dead. We will pay a visit to his family this morning.”
It would be recalled that Omotoso was kidnapped last year but regained freedom few days later.
The late APC chairman was said to had been experiencing failing health since his abduction by some gunmen along Imesi-Agbado Road in July 2023.
