It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of Member Representing Pankshin South Constituency Hon, Barr.Henry Longs .
On behalf of all Plateau State citizens and All Progressive Congress, APC, Plateau State Chapter, Hon Nanman Maimagani Zhatau, and APC, send his deepest condolences to the family and the people of Pankshin south at this difficult time.
The world mourns with you and celebrates the extraordinary life of this remarkable man who devoted his life to peacefully protecting what he called “our common home and future.”
The democracy, empowerment, and eradication of poverty, and civic engagement. Barr. Longs further advanced these objectives through his service in the 9th assembly I was deeply saddened to learn of the death of Hon Henry Longs, the state has lost a powerful force for peace, democracy, and human rights.
Hon Henry was a deep connection between local and the governance where he gives ordinary citizens a voice. His death has left a gaping hole among the ranks of the people of Pankshin south, but he leaves behind a solid foundation for others to build upon. I was inspired by his political contribution and proud to call him our friend.
I am deeply saddened by the death of my remarkable friend Barr. Henry Longs, we reflected a lifetime battle against vested interests and political pressure to raise awareness on how to help protect our democracy.
Barr, Henry Longs your life to service to children, to constituents, to the Plateau state, and indeed all the people of Nigeria
We all knew him as a voice of reason, a man who stood above our artificial divisions of race, tribe, and region and championed the cause of humanity.
Late Barr. Hon Henry Longs will be remembered for the role he played in agitating for political reforms that paved ways to stop impunity, impositions of candidates in Plateau politics.
I would like to express, in the name of God Almighty, my most sincere condolences to his family, to his relatives, and to the Plateau people. The Plateau has lost one of its most emblematic and captivating figures.
We are terribly saddened by the death of our beloved friend and brother a true visionary whose work and life served as a powerful example to politicians everywhere.
He will be remembered as the very friendly and humble person he was, for his intellectual strength and for his strong and genuine conviction and ability to engage people. His legacy will always remain with us. The deepest sympathy of the APC Government has hereby conveyed to Hon Henry Longs family, close friends, and colleagues – and to the Pankshin south people – for this significant and painful loss.
