Tragedy struck on Friday as the chairman of Lokoja Local Government Council, Hon. Muhammed Danasabe Muhammed slumped, and died with less than 24 hours to the governorship elections in the state.

He was confirmed dead around 4:30am at a hospital in Lokoja, the state capital.

Muhammed was rushed to the hospital after he slumped at his residence.

He was said to have been active at series of political meetings in preparation for Saturday’s governorship election.

A family source said he was rushed to Shifa Hospital, Lokoja, shortly after he collapsed in the house at the late hours of Thursday.

“Doctors confirmed him clinically dead around 4.30am on Friday”, said a family member who craved for anonymity.

The deceased was from ward B in cantonment area of Lokoja.

He has since been buried at the Unguwan Kura Muslim cemetery after Friday's Juma’at prayers.
