The Middle Belt Forum (MBF) and the Kaduna State Chapter of the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN) have paid condolence visits to Jacob Onjewu Dickson, an editor at New Nigerian Newspapers, following the passing of his elder sister, Roseline Dickson.

MBF spokesman Comrade Luka Binniyat, who led the delegation on Tuesday, described the loss as tragic, offering prayers for the repose of the deceased’s soul.

“We extend our deepest condolences to the family and pray that God grants them strength in this difficult time,” he said.

On the same day, the leadership of SWAN, led by Chairman Comrade Shehu Abdullahi and Vice Chairman Okpani Mike Odeh, also visited Dickson to express their sympathies. Addressing the gathering, Abdullahi reaffirmed the association’s solidarity.

“We are here to stand with Comrade Jacob Onjewu Dickson in this moment of grief. We know that God is faithful, and we pray for the peaceful repose of his sister’s soul,” he said.

Vice Chairman Odeh emphasized the emotional weight of losing a sibling, describing it as a painful experience. “She passed away at her prime, and we deeply feel the loss.

However, death is an inevitable part of life. Comrade Dickson should take solace in the fact that he is not alone; SWAN stands by him, offering all the necessary support,” he added.

Expressing his gratitude, Dickson said he was moved by the show of solidarity. “This visit has further strengthened me. I am truly grateful for this support. Tentatively, the burial will take place a week before Easter,” he said.

Among those present were SWAN Assistant Secretary Comrade Austine Agbo Emmanuel, Treasurer Juliet Ekwenugo, and Yakubu Obande. Amina Anebi Samuel was also in attendance.

Roseline Dickson, an Abuja-based businesswoman, passed away on March 22 at the Benue State University Teaching Hospital in Makurdi. Her burial is scheduled to take place at the family compound in Agboke-Oglewu, Ohimini Local Government Area of Benue State next month.
