The governorship candidate of Labour Party in Abia state, Dr. Alex Otti, OFR, received with shock and sadness the news of the demise of the PDP governorship candidate in Abia state, Prof. Uche Ikonne.
Dr. Otti recalls the exciting exchange of brotherly pleasantries during his last encounter with Prof. Ikonne at a public function, and regretted that death snatched Prof. Ikonne away from his family and loved ones, just a few days after he issued a press release praying and wishing him quick recovery and return to the Campaign Trail.
In his words " To Learn that Prof. Ikonne has passed on a few days after we prayed and wished him quick recovery and return to the campaign trail, is to say the least very unfortunate, but we cannot question God who decided to call him back home at this time.
The ex bank Chief therefore wishes to send his heartfelt condolences to Prof. Ikonne's family while praying that God would grant his soul eternal repose, and grant his family and loved ones the strength to bear his exit.
Finally, Dr. Otti has decided to suspend his campaigns for the rest of the week. He has also asked that the Labour Party Presidential rally billed for next Tuesday be moved to the end of the week as a mark of honour to the Late Prof. Ikonne.
