“When the news of his death came in, i didn’t believe it because the last time we saw, he was looking very energetic and healthy.
“He was a very diligent, hardworking and peaceful man, who has done much for our union, we will surely miss him.
He prayed God to forgive his sins and accept him to his bosom while wishing the immediate family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
