Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has announced the death of his long-time aide, Ndifreke Mark, who had worked with him for 34 years. Mark was found unresponsive in a hotel room in Abuja after attending mass at the Catholic Church of the Assumption in Asokoro.
In a statement, Fani-Kayode explained that police investigations revealed Mark checked into Mildy Lodge and Apartments in Garki, where he collapsed and died in the presence of another individual. Both this individual and the hotel receptionist have been detained by the police, while the hotel’s management was also questioned. Fani-Kayode has called for a thorough criminal investigation and an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
Fani-Kayode expressed his deep grief over the loss, describing Mark as “like a son” and a trusted confidant who had been a loyal part of his team for over three decades. He praised Mark for his kindness, reliability, and compassion. Fani-Kayode has assured Mark’s family, including his wife Patience and their children, of his support during this difficult time and is confident that justice will be served if foul play is involved.
The hotel where Mark was found has been temporarily sealed as investigations continue, and Fani-Kayode expressed faith in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police to handle the case thoroughly. He thanked those who had offered condolences and prayers, asking for peace for Mark’s soul and comfort for his grieving family.
