Father Tanko before his departure was a strong religious, a social pillar and a prototype of a person who was not only relevant but essential in church, organization and society he identified with.

His demise is a great loss to the entirely of those who had both passive and active contact with him.

My condolence goes to the Church, people of Ankwa, Agunu, Kachia Local Government and Kaduna State.

May you continue to shine in heaven and may Angels receive you with open hands.
