Death of Benue health Commissioner, shocking, devastating – Ortom
Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom says the death of Commissioner for Health and Human Services, Dr. Emmanuel Saleh Ikwulono is a devastating blow to his administration.
Governor Ortom describes Dr Ikwulono as a true professional who built a wonderful working relationship with other members of the State Executive Council in a period of only four months in which he served as Commissioner.
He states that the death of Dr Ikwulono is not only shocking and painful but has also created a vacuum very difficult to fill.
The Governor says the late Commissioner for Health and Human Services will be deeply missed by the Government and people of the state for his proactive efforts in tackling health challenges confronting Benue people, particularly the fight against COVID-19.
He prays that the deceased gets eternal rest and his family the strength to bear the irreparable loss.
