The death of Jerome Torshimbe, the Special Adviser on Bureau of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs to Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, came three days after celebrating his 6th birthday.
IDOMA VOICE reports that Torshimbe died on Monday in an Abuja hospital after a brief illness.
His death came to many as a rude shock.
Finding by IDOMA VOICE have shown that Torshimbe was celebrated by his colleagues, family members and well-wishers on his 65th birthday, which was on September 12, 2020.
Mr. Shimbe was born on September 12, 1965 and died on September 14, 2020.
Earlier, the Executive Chairman of Otukpo Local Government Council, Rt. Hon. George Alli had felicitated with Mr. Shimbe “on the auspicious occasion of his 65th birthday anniversary.”
Hon. George Alli had described Elder Tor Shimbe as a great patriot who has demonstrated total commitment to the progress and development of the third tier of government and generally to the state.
However, Chief Alli was shocked to hear the death of the Shimbe barely two days after celebrating him on his birthday.
