Speaker of the Kogi State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. (Prince) Matthew Kolawole has received the devastating news of the demise of a foremost industrialist, business mogul, and community leader, the Father of the distinguished colleague, Member representing Ankpa 2 State Constituency, at the Kogi State House of Assembly, Hon. Alfa Momoh Rabiu,
Alhaji Isiaka Alfa aka Waali passed on early this morning at his country home, Ankpa at the ripe aged of 92 years.
The Speaker, who sympathized with the outstanding Lawmaker over the demise of his father, noted that it is painful to lose a loved one, especially the vessel through which God brought him to the world, stressing that it is a bitter pill to swallow.
He said the few times he has opportunity to meet and interact with him shows that he was a great man who trained his children in the way of the Lord, no wonder one of his offsprings is now a Member of the State Assembly.
He urged the family to take solace from the words of God which says there is time for everything in life, noting that every mortal at one time or the other, will surely die when the time comes.
It is on this note that the Speaker on behalf of his family, Kabba/Bunu State Constituency, members of the 7th Assembly, management and staff of the Kogi State House of Assembly wish to commiserate with the entire family over the death of their father, grandfather and great grandfather, Alhaji Isiaka Alfa, aka Waali.
May his soul rest in peace
Femi Olugbemi, Chief Press Secretary to the Honourable Speaker, Kogi State House of Assembly
