A mother and son were tragically killed in Plateau State. Mrs. Mary Jonathan and her son, Mark Jonathan, were murdered in Hwollaza Zaria road, Jos.
Yusuf Adamu Gagdi, a member of the House of Representatives representing Pankshin/Kanm/Kanke federal constituency, confirmed the incident. The victims were his mother-in-law and brother-in-law.
The family laid the victims to rest on Saturday, November 2, 2024, in Jos.
Gagdi wrote: “Today, alongside my wife Jemimah, we laid to rest her mother, Mrs. Mary Jonathan, and our brother, Mark Jonathan, who were tragically taken from us by violent and senseless acts. We honour their memories, pray and seek for justice. Rest well, Mama and Brother Mark. May God Almighty expose the perpetrators of this heinous crime.
“It is appointed unto every soul to taste death, but yours, regrettably, came through the barrel of some trigger happy men of the underworld. Nothing would have captured the vanity of human existence better than your senseless murders, alongside your son and my brother, Mr Mark Jonathan. Your tragic murder has created a vacuum in our lives, as we will miss your motherly love and care. Rest well Mama and may God Almighty expose the perpetrators of this heinous crime. Adieu mama!”
