The Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Mr. Sunday Dare, has condoled with the family of the Director-General of the National Institute for Sports (NIS), Dr John Dadi-Mamud, over his untimely death.
A condolence statement by the minister’s media office said: “My deep condolences to the family of the late Dr. John Dadi-Mahmu over the sad news of his death. I was utterly shocked to learn about his demise.
“He was such a dedicated, hardworking director of one of the most strategic institutions under our ministry. His zeal and work ethics were quite encouraging. We have lost a dutiful, loyal and committed worker. His death has robbed Nigeria of a very bright mind, astute administrator and humane personality.
“May God console his family, colleagues and friends and give them the strength to bear this huge loss,” the statement concluded.
Dadi-Mamud who hailed from Kogi State reportedly died on Sunday after returning from a trip.
