Senator representing Plateau South Senatorial District and former Minister of Labour and Employment Simon Bako Lalong has condoled with the family of former Speaker of the Plateau State House of Assembly Rt. Hon. Emmanuel Goar over the death of his son Ritgak Emmanuel Luka Goar who died at the age of 32.
Senator Lalong who visited the residence of the former Speaker in Tazuk, Wokkos District, Pankshin Local Government Area of Plateau State described the death of the young man as very unfortunate and a big loss to the family, Plateau State and Nigeria at large.
He said although the death of the young man is very painful and hard to bear, there is no way to question God who knows why he has called him to glory.
Lalong appealed to the family to take solace in the fact that the late Ritgak did a lot to serve Plateau State, Nigeria and humanity at large in his capacity.
Responding, Rt. Hon. Goar said he was privileged to have the Senator taking the pains to visit the family house at the village to condole with them at the moment of grieve.
He said the family is pained but has handed over to the will of God who is the creator and knows what is best for every creature.
The Senator was accompanied by some former Commisioners and Members of the Legislature.
