Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo state has commiserated with the Vice resident Namadi Sambo on the death of his younger brother, Captain Sabo Sambo, in an auto accident.
In a condolence letter to the Vice President, Oshiomhole said: “I learnt with great shock the news of the death of Your Excellency’s younger brother, Captain Sabo Sambo, on April 27, 2014.

“I offer the condolences of the good people and government of Edo state as well as my personal commiseration over the sad loss.
“This trying period, no doubt, calls for a renewed faith in the Glory  and Majesty of Almighty Allah, from whom we all come and to whom we will all return.

“We, however, take consolation in the fact that Captain Sambo lived a fulfilled life and served the nation diligently as a thoroughbred pilot. He would be sorely missed not only by the aviation industry, but also by the
many he touched with his generosity and kindness.
“Our supplication is for Almighty Allah to, in His infinite mercy, receive his soul with his love and forgiveness and bless him with Aljannah Firdausi.”
