The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on Wednesday said it is heart-broken and utterly devastated by the news of the sudden death of its Ondo State Chapter Chairman, Fatai Adams.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, described the late Adams as exceptionally dedicated to the cause of the party.
Ologunagba said Adams was a seasoned administrator who deployed his intellect, competence, skills, energy and personal resources towards repositioning PDP in Ondo State despite daunting challenges.
A statement by Ologunagba reads: โIndeed, our hearts bleed! Our Party, the nation and indeed humanity have lost one of our brightest and best in Nigeriaโs contemporary political leadership.
โHon. Adams was a humble, calm, insightful and sociable leader; a forthright democrat and charismatic mobilizer who stood for truth, justice, equity and fairness and played many pivotal roles towards the unity, stability, development and success of our great Party, the PDP at the State and National levels.
โHe was an exceptionally dedicated, loyal and beloved Partyman; a seasoned Party administrator who deployed his intellect, competence, skills, energy and personal resources in galvanizing and repositioning our Party in Ondo State despite daunting challenges.
โOver the years, as a political mobilizer, a member of the Ondo State House of Assembly, Vice Chairman and later Chairman of our Party in Ondo State, Hon. Adams excelled in all the assignments given to him by the Party, distinguished himself as a patriot and a selfless leader whose only focus was the good of the people.
โHon. Adamโs death is a huge blow not only to his family but also to the PDP in Ondo State and the National level.
โThe national leadership of the PDP commiserates with the widow and children of Hon. Adams, the PDP family in Ondo State and the entire Akoko people for this irreparable loss.โ
