The 2015 Elections Are Gradually Approaching And The Drama Keeps Going On as the masses watch the political tussle from the sidelines. Though this might start some superstitious belief that the man was killed by juju or voodoo
A governorship aspirant of the People’s Democratic
Party in Plateau State, Senator Cosmas Niagwan,
is dead.
It was gathered that Niagwan died in
his sleep in Lagos.
News of the ex-lawmaker’s death, who was 75,
filtered into Jos in the early hours of Thursday.
Niagwan, who represented Plateau South
senatorial zone in the 5th Assembly, was said to
have travelled to Lagos from his Jos home to
transact some business when he met his untimely
death.
He had indicated interest to vie for the governorship
of Plateau State, but had not obtained the
nomination form before he passed on.
His former legislative aide, Mr. Gabriel Nkup, who
confirmed his death, said Niagwan died in his
house in Lagos on Wednesday night.
He said, “I spoke with his wife and she said that
he did not show any sign of sickness, but went to
bed and failed to wake up.
“I spoke with him last Friday and he told me he
was in house in Jos and I told him I would be
coming to see him before he travelled to Lagos.”
Niagwan, a marine captain, liquidated the former
Nigerian National Shipping Line, and was former
chairman of the Nigerian Maritime Academy,
Oron, in Akwa Ibom State.
