Following the death of former Delta State Governor, Dr Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan, Senate President Godswill Akpabio has described his passing as a major loss to Nigeria and the Niger Delta region.
In a condolence statement issued by his Special Assistant on Media, Jackson Udom, Akpabio said Uduaghan’s contributions to public service, healthcare and infrastructure development would be remembered.
Recalling their years as governors of Akwa Ibom and Delta States between 2007 and 2015, Akpabio described the late politician as a dedicated public servant committed to humanity and national development.
On behalf of the 10th Senate, he extended condolences to Uduaghan’s wife, Roli, his children, the Delta State Government, the Itsekiri nation and the wider Niger Delta community, praying for the peaceful repose of his soul and strength for the bereaved family.
