BY KABS KANU :
Shock and disbelief reigned at home and abroad this morning after family ย members announced that popular press attache Maitland Cole had passed away.
Mr. Cole, who served Sierra Leone in Russia , died this morning . He has been ailing for sometime. The news was received with profound shock and dismay at FACEBOOK where Mr. Cole was a popular participant . In fact, he has still not logged out and his inbox is still open.
The late man was one of the ruling All People’s Congress ( APC ) pen warriors during the 1970e, along with the Mr. Manso NBompa Turay and the Late Sam Metzger . He used to be a regular contributor to the APC ย newspaper, WE YONE ,
Mr. Cole’s grieving son, Ekundayo, who lives in the UK and was all tears , called me early this morning to inform me about the homegoing of his father, whom he knows was my friend.
Maitland and I often discussed on Facebook and this was our last inbox conversation only one month ago. Little did I know that it was my last conversation with a man I admired .
May his soul rest in peace.
Please give my regards to madam and the family. Also Kabs I will appreciate if you let me have additional email addresses and telephone contact so I can get on straight to you
