APC chairman dies in motor accident

It was a sad day for members of the All Progressives Congress  ( APC ) heard of the death of the  Chairman in Ethiope West Council Area of Delta State, Chief Dick Onisuru, who reportedly died in a ghastly motor accident along the Agbarho/Ughelli section of the East West road.

It was gathered that the accident occurred on Wednesday when the late APC chieftain was returning from Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, where he had gone on a private business trip.

It was learnt that Chief Onisuru’s death was a big blow to the party in the state as he was one of the vibrant and strong pillars of the APC in the state.

A source, who confirmed the incident to Southern City News, said the deceased last Sunday held a stakeholders’ meeting with members, elders and leaders of the party in Ethiope West on how to strengthen the party in the forthcoming council elections in the state.

A chieftain of the party in the state, Mr. Enyowhara Omoghene, confirmed the incident, saying, “Onisuru died in a ghastly motor accident on Wednesday 24th along Ughelli/Agbarho road on his way from Port-Harcourt.”

Omoghene noted that the late party chairman was a strong pillar of the APC, lamenting that his death was not only a big loss to his immediate family, but also to the APC family, whose agenda the deceased had always championed before his untimely death.

While also confirming the incident, the Acting Spokesman of the APC, Mr. Leonard Obibi, said the accident occurred in the night and that the deceased would be greatly missed by the party especially now that he would be much needed.
