Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Mr Peter Obi said it was a sombre day for him as he mourned the passing of Ekene Abubakar Adams. Obi said Adams was a dedicated member of the Labour Party and Representative of Kaduna State in the House of Representatives.
In a statement on his X handle on Sunday, the former Anambra State Governor said he regretted he could not attend the funeral service in person due to circumstances beyond his control. Obi said he, however, asked his aide, Yunusa Tanko to represent him at the burial while he joined remotely via Zoom. He further asked God to console the deceased family always, saying he will keep remembering and praying for his eternal rest.
Abubakar Adams, the wife of the deceased, offered my heartfelt condolences. 'I expressed my gratitude to the officiating priest, Minister Rev. Father Okewu, and Rev. Father Gajere for their compassionate service and thoughtful sermon. I also appreciate the presence and kind words of the House of Representatives members, led by Hon. Amos Gwamnan Magaji. 'The promise of the HOR Leader that all the noble initiatives Ekene started will be completed is truly commendable.
