The Federal lawmaker said late Hajia Salamatu Wada (Iye Adibe Igala) who despite her age died in active service to her women folk.
According to him, the late women leader held sway for over four decades in her quest for women upliftment, development and positive contributions to move Igala land forward. He said her achievements should be a source of joy to the family.
Aidoko stated that her exit will have immeasurable effects on the entire family of Wada Ejiga and by extension his offshoots as the late woman leader was the rallying point of the family in all ramifications.
