The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Plateau State, has said it received with shock the sad news of the death of the mother of its National Chairman Mama Lydia Yilwatda.

This was contained in a press statement signed by the Acting Publicity Secretary, Shittu Bamaiyi, and issued to newsmen.

According to family sources, she passed on at the Jos University Teaching Hospital at the age of 83 years.

Her death is not only a personal loss to the National Chairman, but the entire APC family in Plateau State and the Country at large.

There is no doubt that the late Mama’s death, is painful and devastating to the Yilwatdas,because she died at the time her motherly advices and prayers were most needed, particularly to the National Chairman Professor Yilwatda.

A devoted Christian, virtuous, humane and humble women leader, particularly in the Church of Christ in Nations, (COCIN), the late Mama Lydia, was known for the tireless and immeasurable efforts and those of her late Husband Reverend Toma Goshewe Yilwatda, in boosting the Church in Borno, Yobe, Bauchi and Plateau States.

The consoling record is that, the deceased left behind an indelible and an accomplished legacy, which is manifested in her children.

Surely her demise, is a great loss to the Church and theWomen fellowship as well as Plateau State.

While sharing with Professor Yilwatda in his moment of grief, the Party prays God to grant the late Mama’s Soul an eternal rest.
