Taraba State Speaker of the House of
Assembly dies.
The Speaker of the Taraba State House of
Assembly Hon. Haruna Tsokwa has died.
The Speaker has had health challenges that
worsened last week with reports that he
suddenly collapsed. Reports of his death
began as a rumour this morning, but close
associates have confirmed.
It was in April this year, that 17 out of 24
members Taraba State House of Assembly
impeached the erstwhile Speaker Hon.
Istifanus Gbana and his Deputy Hon. Abel
Peter Diah were impeached and in his place
the lateHon. Haruna Tsokwa emerged as
Speaker while Hon. Tanko Maikarfi was
elected Deputy Speaker
Taraba State has been the centre of a
constitutional crisis, following the
incapacitation of its Governor Danbaba
Suntai who sustained injuries in a plane
crash a year ago. Governor Suntai has been
in a struggle to reclaim his post since
returning to the country, with the Tsokwa-led
legislature insisting that the Governor
needed more treatment.

Death is no respecter of what position you occupy! Death is a good reminder.
It comes knocking when ones time is up.
Nothing is forever in this life.

Every person must go one day, one way or the other. No one could say that Suntai will outlive him. Now that he had got to his own bus stop the lesson there for us all is to think of our own end.

I believe the speaker will be remembered as someone that stood for democracy,morality,common sense and rule of law
