The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Abbas Tajudeen, has expressed sadness over the demise of the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, His Royal Majesty, Alhaji (Dr) Abdulrahman Ado Ibrahim, CON.
The Ohinoyi, who is the paramount ruler of Ebiraland in the Kogi Central Senatorial District, reportedly passed away in the early hours of Sunday.
Speaker Abbas commiserated with the people and the government of Kogi State over the exit of the revered monarch, saying the life of the late Alhaji Ibrahim was a great example for Nigerians to follow.
The Speaker described the death as a huge loss to the country, not just Ebiraland and Kogi State.
He said the late Alhaji Ado Ibrahim was a unifier, peacemaker, and bridge-builder who played a significant role in ensuring unity among Nigerians beyond Kogi State.
The Speaker recalled how the Ohinoyi was a businessman and lived in different parts of the country before answering the clarion call to rule over the Ebira people. He also noted that Alhaji Ado Ibrahim was one of the oldest traditional rulers in the country.
The Speaker prayed to Allah to grant the late Ohinoyi of Ebiraland a peaceful resting place in Jannatul Firdaus.
