Baarong said: “My husband was a man who did not live for himself but for everyone. He lived for the downtrodden and the underdogs.

“He was a voice to those who never had one and those who could not fight for themselves.”

The widow added that her husband was always imagining a restructured Nigeria even on his sick bed.
