The Delta State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has expressed deep shock and sadness over the sudden demise of four of its loyal members; Dr. Amos Itihwe, Chief Friday Akpoyibo, Chief Godspower Muemuifo, and Chief E. Ebimami and condoled the bereaved families, praying that God Almighty will give them the strength and fortitude to bear the great losses.
A statement obtained by TheConscienceng signed by the State Publicity Secretary, Delta State PDP, Dr. Ifeanyi Osuoza, reads thus:
“It is with deep shock and a huge sense of sadness that we received the painful news of the passing of Dr. Itihwe, Chief Akpoyibo, Chief Muemuifo, and Chief Ebimami. They were astute politicians, trusted grassroots leaders, great assets to the PDP and loyal party men who distinguished themselves in the service of the party and the State in the different capacities that they had served over the years.
They were also well-loved by their people and strong believers in the Okowa Vision, who not only contributed tremendously to the outstanding victories of our party in their various communities, constituencies, and Senatorial Zones but have equally been solid pillars of support for the Stronger Delta Agenda of our administration.
They will be sorely missed by His Excellency Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, the Executive Governor of Delta State and our party leader, who reposed unshakable faith and confidence in their capacities to serve the State, as well as the PDP family which benefited greatly from their wisdom and total commitment to the party.
We pray that their gentle souls rest peacefully in the warm bosom of the Lord and ask God Almighty to grant their immediate families and colleagues the fortitude to bear the monumental losses and that affliction will not rise up again in Delta State PDP family.
