Veteran Journalist Jacob Zango Passes Away: SWAN Mourns

 

Jacob Zango, a respected veteran journalist, has passed away in Kaduna after a brief illness. His death has deeply affected the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Kaduna State Chapter.

In a statement issued by SWAN Kaduna Secretary Okpani Jacob Onjewu Dickson and released on Friday, SWAN Kaduna Chairman Shehu Abdullahi expressed his profound shock and sadness over Zango’s passing. Abdullahi noted his close personal and professional relationship with Zango, describing him as not just a colleague but a brother.
