The Ibe-Ebidouwei of Ijaw Nation and Chairman of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited, Chief Dr. Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, also called Tompolo, has sympathized with the family of Fuludu Bekederemo of Kiagbodo over the death of High Chief Dr. Edwin Kiagbodo Clark, OFR, CON.
Tompolo said the news came to him with a rude shock and stressed that he never expected such news.
Tompolo condolence message reads:
I, High Chief Dr. Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, also called Tompolo, would like to express my sympathies to the family of High Chief Dr. Edwin Kiagbodo Clark, OFR, CON, on behalf of my friends, family, and colleagues on his passing yesterday.
I also extend my condolences to the people of the South-South Geopolitical Zone and Nigeria in general for the death of our illustrious father.
The news came to me with a rude shock, as I was not expecting this kind of news this morning.
Even though he was old, he was full of life and kicking. Hence, I was surprised to hear of his death this morning.
Nigeria lost its unique and potent voice in the South-South geopolitical zone, which was a unique gift from God.
There is no denying that this death has put a vacuum in the country’s leadership structure. He was a democratic and socio-economic crusader.
Senator Clark was a strong, fearless, and irrepressible individual who spoke truth to power. He was a voice for the voiceless and a father for the fatherless. We will miss him.
I pray that God Almighty gives the family and the country the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.
Signed:
High Chief Dr Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, Tompolo
The Ibe-Ebidouwei of Ijaw Nation and Chairman of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited
