The Chairman, Kogi Chapter of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Mr MomohJimoh Adeiza has lost his wife at the early hours of  Friday .
Mrs Zainab Adeiza, 46, reportedly died in an Abuja Hospital after a protracted illness.
A Statement issued by Chairman and secretary, NUJ Correspondents’ Chapel, Friday Idachaba and Oyibo Salihu respectively, described her death as “sad” and “shocking.”
The chapel, while condoling Adeiza and family as well as the entire Kogi NUJ Chapter, prayed God to grant her soul an eternal rest with the Lord Almighty God.
Also, Gov Yahaya Bello, on behalf of the people and government of Kogi, condoled the NUJ chairman and the entire family over the irreparable loss.
This as Gov. Bello, in a statement issued on Friday in Lokoja by his Chief Press Secretary (CPS), Mr Onogwu Muhammed, expressed sadness over the death and prayed God to grant the soul of the deceased eternal rest and give the family fortitude to bear the loss.
“I was moved by the powerful message I received from the deceased’s husband, which showed the level of closeness between late Mrs Zainab and her husband.
‘I hereby urge the NUJ chairman to put everything to prayer as it was only God that understands why He had to take her away at this point in time.
“As humans, no one could question the actions of God Almighty, more so that death is a necessary end even though mortals seek longevity of life to fulfill some of their desires.
“Mrs Zainab was no doubt a caring mother and pillar of support to her husband while she was alive. The rain of testimonies about her humility and selflessness no doubt endeared her to many, including her husband’s associates and professional colleagues, ” Bello noted.
While sympathising with the entire Adeiza family, the NUJ and friends of the deceased over the irreparable loss, the governor, said, “only the Almighty could explain fully to ordinary mortals why some things happened, so we should all take heart.”
