Abia State Governor Okezie Ikpeazu has expressed shock at the death of Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Sir Johnson Onuigbo.
A statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Onyebuchi Ememanka, recalled the hard work and passion shown by the deceased in PDP.
The statement reads: “Onuigbo had a peculiar pattern of administration which was a direct consequence of the warm personal relationships he built over the years with the people, and which rubbed off on how he ran the party, producing solid victories and stability within the party.
“In all areas he was privileged to serve our people, Onuigbo exhibited uncommon passion and dedication. My family and I join the people to mourn the passage of this great man and iconic politician; we pray God to grant his family the fortitude to bear the loss.”
Onuigbo reportedly passed away, Monday evening.
A source close to the family who prefered to remain anonymous confirmed the death of the party chairman whose tenure could have expired on April but for the COVID-19 pandemic.
His remains was reported to have been deposited at an undisclosed mortuary in a hospital in Umuahia.
