Delta State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday condoled with the state’s All Progressives Congress (APC) and its gubernatorial candidate and Deputy Senate President, Ovie Omo-Agege, over the boat accident, which reportedly claimed the lives of two supporters.
Three others are said to be missing while seven victims are hospitalized as a result of the boat accident which occurred on Tuesday at Okerenkoko, Warri South-West Local Government Area after a campaign rally.
In a condolence message by Dr. Ifeanyi Osuoza, PDP publicity secretary and Deputy Director, Media and Publicity, Delta Delta State Campaign Council, said the party was shocked and deeply saddened at the reports of a fatal boat mishap.
“We commiserate with the Deputy Senate President and Delta APC gubernatorial candidate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, the entire APC family in the state, and most especially the families of those whose lives were lost and those receiving treatment from injuries, sustained during the mishap, which occurred as they returned from the APC rally in Okerenkoko, Warri South-West Local Government Area, on Tuesday, 20th December, 2022.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families, even as we pray that the search for the missing persons by the authorities, will yield positive results and they would soon be reunited with their friends, families, and loved ones.
“Every Delta life matter to us and the loss or misadventure of any Deltan, irrespective of political, cultural, and other diverse considerations, is our collective loss,” Osuoza stated.
