Former Governor of Enugu state and Senator representing Enugu East Senatorial Zone in the Senate, Dr Chimaroke Nnamani has lamented over the death of former National chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Prince Vincent Ogbulafor.
Ogbulafor was said to have died in a hospital in Canada at the age of 73.
Reacting to the death of Ogbulafor Nnamani in a press statement personally signed by him, noted that the former PDP leader was a good administrator and consummate politician who contributed to the growth of the party .
Senator Chimaroke Nnamani said “with Ogbulafor’s death, the PDP has lost a strong pillar and a committed party man . His exit has created a huge vacuum.”
He noted that Ogbulafor died at a time when his wealth of experience in party administration was needed to resolve the seemingly intractable crisis within the party .
According to Nnamani who’s also Chairman, Senate Committee on Cooperation and Integration in Africa/NEPAD, “the PDP would have profited from Ogbulafor’s wise counsel and sagacity as the party moves closer into the 2023 general elections .
“We shall sorely miss him . He was a true party man who stood to be counted when it mattered . He was a fine gentleman who ensured the peace and unity of the PDP”.
He was however consoled that Ogbulafor left a track record of excellent services and an unwavering commitment to the ideals of nationhood.
Chimaroke Nnamani prayed that God grants the deceased eternal rest and give his immediate family the fortitude to bear the irreplaceable loss.
