Sources said Omotoso died in the early hours of Wednesday following a brief illness.
A source, who said that Omotoso was in the office on Tuesday, said he left in the evening.
The source said that he complained he was feeling feverish in the evening.
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.”
