“I am saddened by the news of the demise of Mrs Jummai Agara, the beloved wife of our former Deputy Governor, His Excellency Silas Agara.
“The loss of life anyway is painful even more so is the death of a partner who had provided support, care and love to her family and wherever she found herself.
“She will be sorely missed,” said the Nasarawa governor.
The governor also prayed to God to forgive the shortcomings and for the repose of the soul of the ex-deputy governor’s wife.
“I, on behalf of my family and the good people of our state, wholeheartedly commiserate with His Excellency Silas Agara and the rest of the family.
“Sir, I urge you to take solace in the fond memories and the worthy life Jummai lived.
