SDP CONDOLES GOVERNOR ODODO ON THE DEATH OF HIS FATHER
The Acting National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Dr. Sadiq Umar Abubakar Gombe expresses condolence to the Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Usman Ahmed Ododo, on behalf of the National Working Committee (NWC) and the entire members of the party nationwide, on the passing of his father, Alhaji Ahmed Momohsani Ododo.
The party shares in the grief of the governor and the Ododo dynasty during this difficult period.
Considering the array of tributes that have been penned, celebrating the glorious life and times of the deceased elder stateman and community leader, the party notes that the enviable noble virtues of uncommon humility and humane disposition of the governor are a function of the good nature implanted in him by his late father.
There is no denying the fact that the death of his father means loss of a major pillar of support to the governor at this critical juncture of his life, that he is saddled with the arduous task of leading the people of Kogi and transforming the State unto greatness.
The party prays for the governor that God will comfort and grant him the needed fortitude to bear the irreparable loss, and may he be blessed with wisdom and guidance on his tour duty.
May the soul of Alhaji Ahmed Momohsani Ododo find repose, and may his legacy continue to inspire the governor for a life of impact.
