He said the late Gonto was always in pain whenever something happened that threatened the peace and unity of the people

‘The late Baba died a great patriot and made remarkable contributions to the unity and development of the state and the country at large.

‘Habila prayed to the good Lord to keep comforting the family, community, local government, state and the country.’
