SENATOR I. D. GYANG MOURNS THE DEMISE OF RT. HON. PETER ATANG AZI.
It is with deep sorrow that I received the sad news of the passing of a towering and amiable political leader,
Rt. Hon. Peter Ajang Azi, former Speaker of the Plateau State House of Assembly.
Rt. Hon. Azi was a consummate politician and a true bridge builder whose leadership, humility, and commitment to the cause of the people and public service left an enduring mark on Plateau State. As Speaker, he steered the legislature with dedication and a deep sense of responsibility.
Beyond the corridors of power, he remained an inspiring leader, a unifying figure who worked tirelessly to promote peace, dialogue, and understanding across divides.
His life of passion for service to the people, and quiet strength will continue to inspire many and endure as a legacy in his memory.
I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Azi Ajang family, Izere nation, the people of Jos North West whom he gallantly represented, and the entire Plateau State.
May the Lord grant his soul eternal rest, amen.
Senator I. D. Gyang, Esq.
