The chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress in Taraba State, Comrade Peter Gambo, has died.

Late Gambo died at the Taraba State Specialist Hospital Jalingo after a brief illness today Wednesday, July 15.

The state commissioner of health Dr Innocent Vakkai who confirmed his death, said Gambo died of diabetes and not COVID-19 as some persons have speculated. He said that though Gambo had been on admission at the state’s Specialist hospital Jalingo, he was tested of COVID-19 and his result came back negative.

Until his demise, he was serving his second tenure in office as the Chairman of the NLC. He was also the General Overseer of the Jesus Glorious Army International Church, Taraba State 

May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
