Governor Tambuwal mourns late minister

Governor Aminu Waziri Tambuwal of Sokoto State has described the late Minister of State for Labour and Productivity, James Ocholi, as a dedicated Nigerian who is passionate about service using the instrumentality of the law.

In a message of condolence issued in Sokoto by his spokesman, Malam Imam Imam, Tambuwal said Ocholi's death has robbed the country of one of its finest administrators and legal minds.

He said having worked for long to institute positive changes in how the country is governed; death has now prevented him from realising his dreams of a prosperous, united and stable Nigeria.

While condoling with the immediate family of the deceased over the death, Tambuwal said losing his wife and son in the tragic incidence makes his loss more painful.

He prayed to God to give the family, and all Nigerians, the fortitude to bear the losses.
