Immediate past President of the Senate, Senator
David Mark literally wept yesterday as news of the
demise of the 2015 People’s Democratic Party
(PDP) Governorship Candidate in Plateau state,
Senator Gyang Pwajok filtered in.
Senator Mark in a reaction to the demise of
Pwajok lamented that the erstwhile Senator was a
complete gentleman, who exhibited uncommon
commitment and patriotism to the ideals of
nationhood.
Senator Mark recalled that the late Pwajok was
one of the youngest and brightest senators during
the 7th Senate.
He said: “Senator Pwajok was truly a distinguished
Senator who was very committed and passionate
about the welfare, Security and development of
Nigeria.
“His death at this time is tragic. It is even more
devastating when one recalls that late Pwajok only
came to the Senate to complete the tenure of his
predecessor, late Senator Gyang Dalyop, Dantong
who met his death during one of the ethno-
religious conflicts in the troubled Plateau state.
“This is a huge loss to the people of Plateau state
and the nation at large. It is regretable that
Pwajok died at a time when his services were
most needed to navigate through the murky
political terrain.
“He has left a huge vacuum. We shall miss him
especially for his frank and unbiased disposition
to national issues”.
Senator Mark, therefore, condoled the
government and people of Plateau state over the
sad loss.
He asked the bereaved
family to take solace in
the fact that Pwajok lived
a short but an eventful and accomplished life
worthy of emulation.
