The immediate past speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly, Aondona Dajoh, has lost his older brother, Elder Gwamile Dajoh.
The news of Elder Dajoh came between hours after Aondona resigned his position as the speaker of the state house of assembly.
It was reported that he collapsed and died on Sunday, just hours after his younger brother tendered his resignation.
Details surrounding the incident remain scanty at the time of filing this report.
The late Dajoh was said to have been deeply concerned over the political crisis in the house prior to his sudden passing.
His death follows Hon. Aondona Dajoh’s resignation, which paved the way for the election of Honourabled Alfred Berger as the new speaker during an emergency plenary session.
