“His long and varied career, from his early days as an aide, through his service as chairman of the Nigerian Railway Corporation, State chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party in Delta State, commissioner, and ultimately as a senator, stands as a testament to a lifetime of service.”

Special adviser on media/research to the Minister, Emameh Gabriel, said; “In this moment of immense grief, the minister extends his heartfelt condolences to the immediate family, his wife, children, and loved ones. We pray that the Almighty God grants them the strength and fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss.

“Our condolences also go to the entire people of Delta North Senatorial District, whom he served diligently, the political class of Delta State, and his numerous friends and associates across the nation. His absence will be deeply felt.

“While we mourn his transition, we celebrate a life of great consequence and service. May his soul find eternal rest in the bosom of the Lord.”
