GOVERNOR LALONG CONDOLES DEPUTY SPEAKER AHMED IDRIS OVER DEATH OF SISTER.

Plateau State Governor and Chairman of the Northern Governors Forum Simon Bako Lalong has commiserated with the Deputy Speaker of the House Representatives, Rt. Hon. Ahmed Idris Wase over the death of his elder sister Hajiya Aishatu Idris.

Lalong in a condolence message described the late Hajiya Aishatu as a good woman who was a very dependable sister to members of her immediate family and others within the community as she engaged in acts of charity, mentoring and advocacy.
He described her death as a big loss to the family, particularly to the Deputy Speaker who derived a lot of comfort and counsel from her during critical moments of his career.

While asking the Deputy Speaker and members of the family to accept her departure as the will of God, the Governor called on those who benefited from her love, mentorship and benevolence to extend same to others as a way of honouring her memory and ensuring that her legacies endure.
He also prayed God to granny her soul eternal rest and grant the family the fortitude to bear the loss.
