Gov Sule loses Special Adviser

The Special Adviser to Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State on Special Duties, Murtala Lamus, has been confirmed dead.

Lamus, it was gathered, died in the early hours of Tuesday at his country home, Wamba, the headquarters of Wamba Local Government Area of Nasarawa State after a brief illness.

Governor Sule, in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Ibrahim Addra, expressed sadness over the demise of his Special Adviser, describing his death as a rude shock.

The governor added that Lamus, who was the ‘Dokajin Wamba’, was his long time friend and ally.

“He was a quiet, but consummate politician, grassroots mobiliser and patriot whose love for Nasarawa state and humanity is not in question,” he added.

Sule, however, prayed to God to “grant the soul of late Lamus eternal rest and to give his family, friends and associates the courage to bear the loss.”
