Delta State governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori paid a condolence visit to the family of former Deputy Governor of the state, Professor Amos Agbe Utuama, SAN on Saturday.
A statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com on Saturday noted that the governor during his condolence visit to the Ikede Heights residence of Professor Utuama in Udu Local Government, eulogized the late Professor of Law and Senior Advocate of Nigeria calling him a very reliable and dependable political figure whose selfless services to the state and the country as a whole would be missed.
While commiserating with the family, Governor Oborevwori also assured of the support of the state government towards the burial of the late elder statesman.
He said: ‘I received the sad news of the death of Professor Amos Agbe Utuama, SAN with a rude shock.
When I came into office, I was aware of his health challenges and we all made efforts including the family but we cannot question God. There is no particular time to die, death is death.
We are here to commiserate with the people of Ughelli South and his family over his demise. My prayers and thoughts are with the family, the people of Ughelli South and Deltans.
As a former Deputy Governor of our dear state, we have a role to play. So, I am here in dual capacity as governor of Delta State and also because we had a personal relationship.
I want to assure you that we will stand by the family in this trying time. It is a critical time for all of us because we have lost a great political figure.
He was very reliable and dependable, a good listener and those close to him can testify to these great traits.
We will not leave you people alone at this time and once again we commiserate with the family and may God grant his soul eternal rest’.
Responding on behalf of the family, daughter of the deceased politician, Barr. Fejiro Smooth, thanked Governor Oborevwori for his support in ensuring that their late patriarch got good medical attention before his demise.
‘Your Excellency, we are deeply grateful for your support. As you mentioned, it has been a very challenging time for our family, especially following the loss of our mother.
Despite all efforts, we lost my father last week. Your Excellency, we extend our heartfelt thanks for easing our burden. Your approval for him to seek medical care, along with your financial and emotional support, truly helped us during this difficult period.
We find comfort in knowing we were not alone. Delta State Government’s support enabled us to do everything possible to keep him with us as long as we could.
On behalf of our family, we thank you profoundly, Your Excellency. We are also grateful to all state officials here, and to everyone who prayed, supported, and stood by us. May God also meet you at your points of need.
Your Excellency, your continued support, as you have assured, means everything to us. We appreciate your presence here today and everything you have done, and we trust in all that you will do as we prepare for the burial’ she said-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
