The Delta State Council of the Nigeria Labour Congress NLC, under the leadership of Comrade Williams Akporeha has described the sudden demise of the State President of the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees NULGE, Comrade David Ofoyeno as a rude shock.

Comrade Akporeha stated this while expressing his grief on the sudden demise of Comrade David Ofoyeno. According to him, “the information on Comrade David Ofoyeno’s sudden death reached me as a rude shock and I am finding it very difficult to come to terms with it.”

He described the late David Ofoyeno as a vibrant union leader that will be greatly missed by NULGE and labour movement in general. “Comrade Ofoyeno was a strong voice and a philanthropist who gave his best to the affairs of both labour and the down trodden. His death has no doubt left a vacuum that will be difficult to fill.”

“I use this opportunity on behalf Congress to commiserate especially with his immediate family and loved ones, NULGE as well as labour movement in general on this irreplaceable loss. May God receive his soul to eternal rest.”
