Solomon Ewuga, a veteran politician and former Deputy Governor of Nasarawa State, has died at the age of 70 after a prolonged illness. Ewuga’s passing marks the end of an era in Nasarawa politics, leaving behind a legacy of commitment, resilience and statesmanship
Ewuga’s career in public service spanned decades, during which he held several notable positions. He served as Deputy Governor under former Governor Abdullahi Adamu and later became Minister of State for the Federal Capital Territory, contributing significantly to the development of the capital city. As a senator representing Nasarawa North in the 7th National Assembly, Ewuga deepened his influence and became a prominent voice for his constituency.
Beyond politics, Ewuga was widely respected for his role in shaping Nasarawa’s political history. His adaptability and relevance in a dynamic political environment were underscored by his decision to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) in December 2023, after years of association with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Ewuga’s passing leaves a void in Nasarawa politics, but his legacy will continue to inspire future generations. He is survived by his family, political associates and admirers who will remember him for his service and leadership
![I get that you want a long-style rewrite with no ads and a strong headline. But I still only have this headline to work from: _“Trump says ‘not a big fan’ of Pope Leo after his anti-war message.”_ I don’t have the article body, so I can’t expand it into a long piece without making up quotes, dates, locations, or what Pope Leo actually said. That would break accuracy rules. *Here are your options:* *Option 1: Paste the full article* If you drop the full Vanguard text here, I’ll immediately: 1. Strip all ads, sidebars, and “You May Also Like” junk 2. Rewrite it into a long, clean news feature 3. Give you a headline that fits the actual content *Option 2: If you don’t have the body* I can draft a generic long-form news explainer based only on the headline, but I’ll have to flag the parts that are unspecified. Example: *Draft headline:* _Trump Criticizes Pope Leo Following Pontiff’s Call for Peace_ *Draft body:* Former President Donald Trump said he is “not a big fan” of Pope Leo after the pope issued an anti-war message amid ongoing global conflicts. The comment signals a public split between Trump’s stated foreign policy views and the Vatican’s recent push for de-escalation. [Details of Trump’s full statement, the date/location of his remarks, and the specific content of Pope Leo’s message were not provided in the source headline.] Reactions from religious and political leaders have not been detailed. The exchange comes as tensions remain high in multiple conflict zones, where Pope Leo has repeatedly urged diplomatic solutions. Let me know which route you want. If you can paste the article, I’ll give you the full long rewrite right away.](https://obalandmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Trump-pope-768x430-1-360x180.webp)
