Samuel Galadima, Plateau housing and urban development commissioner, is dead. He died while jogging this morning with Governor Simon Lalong, at the Rwang Pam Stadium, Jos. He was said to have slumped prompting the Governor and others to try to revive him. He was rushed to the Plateau Specialist Hospital, where he died.
Mr Emmanuel Nanle, Director of Press Affairs, confirmed the incident.
Nanle said that the official was gasping for breath by the time he arrived the hospital.
“Doctors tried to stabilise him but could not. We have lost him,” he said.
It was not first time this kind of sudden death had happened. A famous case was that of the former governor of Benue Aper Aku who also died while jogging. A famous editor and newspaper columnist Mr Dimgba Igwe also died while jogging as he was knocked down by a hit and run driver.
