Words are insufficient to condole one on a death of loved one, but I do urge you to take solace in the life that he lived. I have no doubt that Linco’s political and leadership impact and reach will continue to be felt through the lives of the people and Government of Kogi State especially his political protege and associates through his kind advice. 

On behalf of the People of Kogi State, my family and myself, I offer you our deep condolences while praying the Almighty God to grant you, the rest of your family, the grace to endure this irreparable loss”.
