Senator godiya akwashiki dead

Senator Godiya Akwashiki dies in Indian hospital at 52

Sen. Godiya Akwashiki (SDP/Nasarawa North) has died at the age of 52, following a protracted illness.

A family source, who confirmed the incident to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on condition of anonymity on Thursday in Nassarawa Eggon, said that Akwashiki died in an Indian hospital on Wednesday, Dec. 31, 2025.

He said that the death of the senator was a big blow and had left a big vacuum, given his commitment to the development of the senatorial zone and empowerment programmes.

“Since in the history of Nasarawa North, Sen. Akwashiki was the best Senator Nasarawa North ever produced due to his purposeful leadership.

“His projects are in every nook and cranny of the constituency as he was the only Senator that re-contested and won for a second term in the zone,” he said

NAN recalls that before his election into the Nigerian Senate in 2019, Akwashiki had served as Majority Leader and Deputy Speaker of the Nasarawa State House of Assembly.

NAN also learnt that Akwashiki was born on Aug.3, 1973, in Angba Iggah, Nassarawa Eggon, Nasarawa State.

No single senator in Nigeria can make heaven

No love for dead senators

The ones alive now should look their future. In 20 years, how many of them will still be alive?

Even in 10 years from now, most of them will not be able to walk without aid if they are alive.

They should be sensible and do the needful for the betterment of mankind.

Rip to the departed soul

No be this senetor wey dem been catch with person wife one certain time like that?

May his soul rest in peace

If only he used some of the constituency project funds allocated to him for his constituency to upgrade or build a world class hospital

R.ip to the senator. Life is too precious
Sorry for your loss

Na you go make am bah, lolzzzz. Nigerians and believing they are the saints

Nigerian politicians just keep "kpaiing" in foreign hospitals. Instead of improving healthcare facilities in the country, they rather go abroad for treatment.

Oga leave the senator biko!, some people should go and challenge their poor parents for bringing them to the world on empty pockets and into direct poverty.

That is the surest way of doing the needful for the betterment of mankind.

I am tired and agree at seeing poor Nigerians having children like there are no consequences.

Are you living the consequences of your parent's poor and irresponsible decision? That's the case for 80 -90% of Nigerian youths.

best senitor indeed , but could not build hospital for his people. Now that he has died in india, fly him back to Nigeria the official burial ground of the Nigerians in diaspora
