Former Delta State Governor, Chief James Onanefe Ibori has described the late PANDEF leader, Edwin Clark as an exceptional leader and fearless fighter who never hesitated to speak the truth when it mattered most.

Clark died on Monday at the age of 97.

In a statement on his social media pages, Ibori said the late Clark during his lifetime exhibited the true spirit of the Niger Delta, which are courage, determination and an unyielding commitment to justice.

"Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark (E. K. Clark) was a fearless fighter, a staunch federalist, and an exceptional leader of our time".

"He never hesitated to speak the truth when it mattered most, serving as a moral compass for the Ijaw Nation, Delta State, and Nigeria at large. In him burned the true spirit of the Niger Delta—courage, determination, and an unyielding commitment to justice".

"His leadership was a beacon of hope and resilience, and his passing leaves a profound void. We will sorely miss his wisdom, guidance, and unwavering voice. May his soul rest in perfect peace".

Which voice, why didn't he used the same voice to speak to Jonathan for developing south south. He was busy building a university in his home town by Jonathan and didn't bother to tell him to fix the refineries, revalitize Warri and other port and fix east west road. His voice became faint when Jonathan his fellow Ijaw man became president. He is among the problems we faced in south south.
