A wave of grief has swept through the family of Senate Minority Leader, Senator Abba Patrick Moro, following the tragic death of his son, Peter Moro, in a fatal motor accident just 24 hours after the loss of his grandson.
Peter, who recently returned from Turkey and was preparing for mobilisation into the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), died in a ghastly motor accident on Saturday evening. The details of the crash remain unclear as investigations are still ongoing.
This heartbreaking incident came barely a day after Senator Moro’s grandson passed away on Friday at a hospital in Abuja following a brief illness. The devastating double loss has plunged the Benue South Senator’s family and close associates into deep mourning.
As of the time of filing this report, no official statement has been released by Senator Moro or his media office. However, messages of condolence have begun to pour in from colleagues in the National Assembly, political allies, community leaders and supporters across Benue State and beyond.
