Dr. Joe Okei-Odumakin, the President of Campaign for Democracy, CD, has described the death of Clara Oshimohole as shocking, painful and devastating.
CD stated that the late Clara Oshiomohole stoically stood by her husband because he believes in the people of Edo State and the revalidation of his mandate,†he said.
“For her to die few weeks after the second anniversary of that historic mandate is a terrible loss that words cannot enpress,†he said.
“Focused, dedicated and resilient, Clara was a rare woman, unique in her stead fastness and totally committed to the heroic principles of her husband. She was indeed a woman in a million. The cause of her death calls our attention again to the need to upgrade our facilities in this country and create awareness of early detection and treatment so that we can prevent needless death from such afflictions,†he added.
