Honourable Samuel Adzegeh, chairman, Jemgbagh Media Forum has sent a message of appreciation to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation Sen. George Akume for his consistent show of love and dedication to media practitioners of Jemgbagh extraction as well as the entire Jemgbagh community of Benue State. The Forum chairman appreciated Senator Akume for the high powered representation for both President Bola Tinubu and himself at the burial Saturday July 4, of the mother of Terrence Kuanum, late Mama Haanivaa Num Bunde Hundu, at Tse Num, Mbaigyu, Ipav, Gboko Local Government Area. Adzegeh made the appreciation while condoling Kuanum over the bereavement, particularly noting that Akume has through the years retained his famous reputation for kind and all embracing nature as shown by his standing by the family of the departed matriach. He charged Akume not to be distracted by the antics of fourth columnists in the Tinubu administration and pledged the unalloyed support of Jemgbagh Media Forum to the SGF and the administration. Adzegeh also commended the delegation from the office of the SGF for taking pains to attend the burial of late Mama Kuanum, who he said was matriarch of Jemgbagh Media Forum. He also singled out Chief Hon. Mrs Becky Torkwase Orpin, member representing Gboko East in the Benue State House of Assembly, for special mention, noting that she has always been a towering beacon of support for both the Forum and its individual members. Late Mama Haanivaa Num Hundu Bunde, born 1926, passed June 3, 2026 at the age of one hundred years. She is survived by five children, many grandchildren and great grandchildren, among who is Terrence Asor Kuanum, Special Adviser on Public Affairs, Office of the SGF.
