Lalong, in a condolence message by his Director of Press and Public Affairs, Dr Makut Macham, in Jos on Wednesday, described the deceased as a patriot.

He said Gogwim, who represented Plateau Central in the Senate between 2007-2011, gave the nation and Plateau State his best in all his duties.

He eulogised the senator, saying he retired from the army with records of achievements and was diligent in politics, business, community service and philanthropy.
