Delta State Deputy Governor, Prof. Amos Agbe Utuama (SAN ), has described the Late Mr. Jackson Adjogri (JP), one-time Secretary to the State Government (SSG) and Head of Service, as a diligent and hard working officer who delivered genuine service during his life time.

Prof. Utuama stated this during his condolence visit to the family of the former SSG and Head of service in the state at their family compound, Agbarho, Ughelli North Local Government, Delta State.

While expressing his condolence to the wife and family, he noted that late Mr Adjogri who was until his death, Chairman, Delta State Advisory Council and Father to Mr. Ogheneovo Adjogri, a Protocol Officer in the office of the deputy governor, was a very patient and great man of wisdom who paid his dues in life by doing what he was supposed to do before he died, adding that he was never found wanting in any respect.

Utuama asserted that, he still holds sweet memory of the late Adjogri, as he was instrumental to his entering into the university, adding that late Adjogri has lived a befitting life that is worthy of emulation. He urged the children to take over from where their father has stopped and to have more distinguished and enviable life than their father.

The deputy Governor, who prayed God to protect the wife, Mrs Mary Adjogri, and the entire family as well as praying for God mercies on the soul of the deceased considering his service to humanity, expressed his support to the family during the course of the burial.

Responding on behalf of the Adjogri’s family, Mr E. Olomukoro, an elder, expressed gratitude to the state deputy governor for his words of encouragement, love and concern to the family. He noted that the demise of their late father and brother came as a surprise to them, however the family will continue to take solace in the hands of God, saying they cannot question him as he is supreme.
