For those who knew him,he was a perfect gentleman,a loyal and dependable friend who gave all he had to the service of his father's land , firstly as minister of the federal republic and later as an Ambassador,a post he held till he breathed his last. Lagos will miss him and the federal government will also miss his valuable contribution to national development.
