Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Ahmed Usman Ododo has condoled with the former Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Ibrahim Idris over the demise of his son, the late Honourable Muhammed Ibrahim Idris, former member representing Ankpa/Olamaboro/Omala Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.

According to Governor Ododo, the late Honourable Idris was an older brother in whom he had found a worthy compatriot.

The Governor noted that their last meeting was in March 2024 when he (the late lawmaker) came in the company of stakeholders from Omala Local Government area on a solidarity visit to him as Governor of the State, during which they had useful discussions on plans for the development of the state.

Governor Ododo urged the family of Alhaji Ibrahim Idris to take solace in the fact that the late Honourable Idris lived a life filled with great accomplishments as a politician and businessman.

The Governor prayed that Allah would grant the late lawmaker eternal rest and the family, the fortitude to bear the huge loss.

Born December 8, 1969, the late lawmaker, who died on Wednesday, April 10, 2024 in Abuja at the age of 55, represented Ankpa Olamaboro/Omala Federal Constituency from 2011 to 2015.
