“Other activities lined up for the funeral ceremony will be announced soon,” Mr. Mijinyawa said.
He quoted Mr. Ishaku as describing Mr. Suntai as a great leader who impacted positively on the lives of Taraba people and therefore, deserved to be honoured.
Mr. Ishaku also urged them to keep praying for the repose of the soul of Mr. Suntai and his family.
