“Having led a good life, our desire is that the Almighty God grants Prince Paeke eternal rest, comfort your family, and all staff of the Federal Ministry of Transport, as we all bear this irreparable loss.”
Prince Paeke, second son of Justice Dongban-Mensem, died in his sleep in the early hours of Saturday, July 23 at the age of 38.
He studied Mathematics at the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger State, and was an official of the Federal Ministry of Transportation in Lagos.
His death occurred 11 years after the passing of the first son of the jurist, Kwapda’as Rangna’an Samson Dongban, who was killed by a hit and run driver in Jos, Plateau State capital, in 2011.
The judge had set up the Kwapda’as Road Safety Demand Foundation in honour of her first son.
