A former Governor of Plateau State, Fidelis Tapgun, said, “I just heard of his death and it is very sad. His death is indeed a big loss not only to the people of Plateau State but to Nigerians and the military in particular because whatever history is going to be written, the military is going to take a large chapter and he is one of those whose name will be mentioned severally on every chapter because of the great roles he played for the sake of the country.

So, we thank God for his life and we pray that God will console everyone and rest his soul.”
