Kwara State Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has described the death of Brigadier-General Ahmed Abdullahi Aboki (rtd.) as a great national loss, calling him a patriot and fine military officer who served the country meritoriously.

Brigadier-General Aboki (rtd), born in 1945, was military administrator of Kwara State between 1987 and 1988.

“His Excellency commiserates with the people and government of Nasarawa, the home state of the late brigadier-general, as well as his immediate family and the APC fold on this sad loss. The Governor recalls the illustrious military career of the one-time Director of Military Intelligence (DMI) and his contributions to national development as a former Minister of Communications, Social Development, Youths and Sports,” according to a statement on Saturday.

“The Governor prays the Almighty God to repose the soul of the General and comfort the family he left behind.”
