Former Senate President and the senator representing Benue South, David Mark, has decribed his late aide, Samuel Ikongbeh, otherwise known as Oxbakerz as a true son.
Mark, while paying a moving tribute to the late young man, said the deceased had promised to ride him on a horse but failed to fulfill it.
Ikongbe passed away on Tuesday after suffering from a heart attack in Abuja, sources told IDOMA VOICE.
He recalled with nostalgia, “Oxbakerz is like a son to him. In 2007, after my victory in Jos, Oxbakerz rode me on a horse me from Burnt Bricks to my house (in GRA).
“Whenever I see him after then, I always asked him of the horse. He promised to ride the horse for me one more time before he died.
“Him, leaving two children behind means I have two more grand-children that I will have to look after.”
