Okowa said that the late Hassan was a promising, humble, and friendly young man and prayed to God to forgive his shortcomings, grant him rest, and comfort the family.
“On behalf of my family, the government and the people of Delta, I commiserate with my brother Governor Abdullahi Sule on the untimely demise of his son, Hassan.
“It is never the prayer or wish of any parent to bury their children, but God knows His plans for His people.
“As a state, we are with you in prayers throughout these trying times, and may God grant you and Nasarawa First Lady, Hajiya Silifat Abdullahi Sule, the entire family, the people of Akwanga Local Government Area and the state at large the fortitude to bear this great loss,” Okowa stated.
