Jeremiah\u00a0 Useni, a retired army General and former Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, is dead.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He died on during a protracted illness,<\/div>\n
\n

aged 82 years.<\/p>\n

Governor Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State on Thursday night announced the death in a statement issued by his Director of Press and Public Affairs, Gyang Bere, describing\u00a0Useni\u2019s transition as a tremendous loss to his family, the Nigerian Armed Forces, Plateau State, and the nation.<\/p>\n

The governor noted Useni\u2019s exemplary leadership, commitment to service, and tireless efforts to promote peace and security, particularly in Northern Nigeria and Plateau State, adding that it will forever be remembered.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Executive Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang, deeply regrets to announce to the citizens of Plateau State and all patriotic Nigerians, the passing of the former minister,” the statement partly read.<\/p>\n

\u201cGovernor Mutfwang recounted the illustrious career of the late General, who served Nigeria with distinction in various capacities, including as Minister of Transport, Quarter-Master General of the Nigerian Army, and Minister of the FCT.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter retiring from the military, General Useni transitioned into politics, where he continued his service to the nation. He served as Deputy Chairman of the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) and was elected Senator representing Plateau South Senatorial District in 2015 under the People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP).<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of my family, the government, and the peace-loving people of Plateau State, I extend my deepest sympathies to the President, the Nigerian Armed Forces, the immediate family, and all those mourning the loss of this distinguished elder statesman.”<\/p>\n

Mutfwang\u00a0prayed God to grant the family, Plateau State, and the nation the strength and fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss as well as\u00a0divine presence to comfort and provide solace in the days ahead.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
