President Bola Tinubu has mourned former Executive Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), who slumped and died while watching the semi-final match between the Super Eagles of Nigeria and Bafana Bafana of South Africa on Wednesday night.



The president, in a statement by his spokesman Chief Ajuri Ngelale, condoled with the Ojougboh family and the government and people of Delta State over what he called “the tragic loss”.



“It is with a heavy heart that President Bola Tinubu receives the news of the passing of Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, former Executive Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), who died on Wednesday.



Dr. Ojougboh was a member of the House of Representatives (2003-2007) and a leader of the All-Progressives Congress (APC) in Delta State.



President Tinubu condoles with the Ojougboh family and the government and people of Delta State over this tragic loss.



While praying for the peaceful repose of the departed, President Tinubu comforts his family and urges them to find strength and hope in God Almighty, who presides over the affairs of men, as well as in the cherished memories and legacy of the late APC chieftain.

It would be recalled that Ojougboh who represented Ika federal constituency of Delta State died on Wednesday night while watching the AFCON 2023 semi-final match between Nigeria and South Africa.



Reliable sources said that the outspoken politician and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) slumped and died after a penalty kick was awarded against Nigeria.



“As soon as a penalty kick was awarded against Nigeria during the AFCON match with South Africa on Wednesday’s semi-final clash in Bouake, Ivory Coast, he slumped and died” the source said.



The deceased was the Akinuwa of Agbor Kingdom in Ika Local Government Area of Delta.
