The presidential flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has sympathised with Rivers chapter of the party following death of delegates returning from the convention.
The delegates were said to have met their tragic end on their way back from the Convention held in Abuja.
Tinubu’s condolence was contained in a statement by Director, Media and Communication of Tinubu Campaign organisation, Bayo Onanuga in Abuja on Thursday.
It read, “The Tinubu Campaign Office received with shock the death of Hon. Onimiteim Vincent Samuel, the secretary of our great party, the APC in Akukutoru Local Government Area of Rivers State and others yet to be identified in a vehicular accident on their way from Abuja.
“On behalf of the presidential candidate of our great party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, we commiserate with the family and our party leaders in the state.
“The death of grassroots leaders of our party in such tragic circumstances is saddening. We pray for the repose of their souls and urge party members to dedicate themselves to ensure that the victory of our party which they fought for is achieved.”
