DELTA State Commissioner for Information, Hon. Patrick Ukah has described the Senator representing Delta North District at the upper legislative chambers as an asset to the state and the nation.

Hon. Ukah made the statement yesterday, Sunday, April 30, 2016, in Ibusa, during the burial ceremony of Obi Francis Nwaoboshi, father of Senator Nwaoboshi.

According to Hon. Ukah, the large turnout of people from different parts of the country was a clear indicator that Senator Nwaoboshi who is the immediate past chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State did well as a representative of the people.

Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, former Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan, members of National Assembly, among other dignitaries attended the ceremony.

"Delta State is blessed and Senator Nwaoboshi obviously is an asset to the state and to the country," he said, adding, "we are not mourning the passage of Obi Nwaoboshi, we are celebrating his life and time because, we have an asset in Senator Peter Nwaoboshi."

The Commissioner commended those who came out to bid farewell to the late Nwaoboshi and called for support for Governor Okowa's administration by engaging in peaceful activities.
