The Lagos State chapter of the Action Congress has expressed deep shock at the sudden and unexpected death of our dearest and esteemed leader, Chief Bode Abdullahi.
The party sees the death as a rude shock the party can ill afford at this critical period and wishes him eternal rest.
In a release in Lagos, signed by the Lagos State Publicity Secretary of the AC, Joe Igbokwe, Lagos AC says that Abdullahi is an irreplaceable political lodestar that will be sorely missed by the teeming members and supporters of the AC and all progressives in Nigeria.
The party therefore prays God to grant the tireless spirit of Bode Abdullahi a sweet repose while urging the immediate family, friends, political associates and followers of the erudite politician to bear the loss with fortitude.
“Bode Abdullahi was a quality, vibrant progressive with a rich political pedigree that has ensured he remained firmly in control of the grassroots. He was a pragmatic leader of men whose potentials were great assets to our great party in Lagos in particular and Nigeria in general. He was a great dynamic leader that carried himself with respect and unassuming dignity and this ensured that he remained faithful to the ideals of progressivism for his entire political career.
“Coming at a time of great political realignment that targets the uniting of the countryâ€
