Solomon Dalung, the former Minister of Sports, has announced the death of his son, Nehemiah Dalung.
Nehemiah, 33, was bedridden with an unknown ailment when his death was announced in the early hours of Monday, October 24, 2022.
Dalung announced the loss on Facebook, writing,
“Although Nehemiah’s life ended before we were ready, the time he spent in our lives was immemorable.”
“Nehemiah Dalung was 33 at the time. He was my child.”
“There are no words to express the deep pain and sorrow of losing a son in his prime, but we find comfort in God, who gives and takes. May his soul rest in peace.”
Meanwhile, a few hours before the announcement, the former minister posted a video on the same platform of his ailing son, Nehemiah, asking for prayers to keep him (Nehemiah) alive.
