Nasarawa State Governor, Engineer Abdullahi Sule, has condoled with the families, as well as leadership of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), over the death of some of its political supporters involved in an accident while on a rally in Lafia, the state capital.
Engineer Sule, in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary (CPS), Mallam Ibrahim Addra, on Monday, described the death of the NNPP supporters in such circumstances as lamentable, urging for more caution as the country inches towards another political campaign period.
While expressing sadness over the loss of lives, the Governor condoled with the families of the departed as well as leadership of the NNPP both at the state and national levels.
He prayed for the repose of those who lost their lives, wishing those who sustained injuries quick recovery.
Recall that, an accident involving the convoy of the presidential candidate of the NNPP, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Saturday, claimed the lives of no fewer than six supporters of the party in Lafia.
