The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is grief-stricken over the dead of
the Chairman of Abia State Chapter of our great party, Chief Johnson
Onuigbo.
PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, conveyed the party’s message in a statement sent to Okay.ng on Monday.
According to the statement, “the death of Chief Onuigbo, particularly at this critical time in the history of our nation, is indeed a big blow to our great party both at the national level as well as Abia state and our nation, Nigeria, in general.
“Chief Onuigbo was popularly known, remained a loyal party man and an
exceptionally committed leader, who played sacrificial roles towards the
stability and growth of our great party at the local government, state
and national levels.
“Chief Onuigbo was a team player, who spared nothing in serving the
interest of the people, as a local government chairman in Abia state,
Abia Central Zonal Vice Chairman as well as the State Chairman of our
party.
“Our party leaders, members and supporters across board are in deep
sorrow, but we draw solace in the fact that Chief Onuigbo lived a worthy
life in the service of humanity to the glory of God.
“The PDP condoles with the Onuigbo family, the government and people of
Abia state, the Abia state PDP family, the people of Umuahia North Local
Government as well as the Anglican Church of Nigeria, where Chief
Onuigbo was a Knight of St. Christopher.
“Our party prays God to grant us all the fortitude to bear this huge
loss.
