The Okiroro of Isoko Nation and former Secretary to the Delta State Government, Comrade (Chief) Ovuozourie Samuel Macaulay, has paid a condolence visit to the family of late Sir Simeon Igogo at his residence in Owhelogbo, Isoko North Local Government Area of Delta State.
Macaulay, who visited the bereaved family to commiserate with them over the death of the community leader, described the passing of Sir Igogo as painful and shocking, particularly at a critical period in the history of the Owhelogbo community.
The late Sir Simeon Igogo served the Owhelogbo community in various capacities, including as former Chairman of the Warri Branch and Vice President-General. He also contested for the position of President-General, demonstrating his commitment to the growth, unity and development of the community.
In a condolence message, Macaulay said: “Our brother, Sir Simeon Igogo, your departure at this critical time of our community history was shocking. You had the desire to serve your community. You left too soon. May your soul rest in peace.” He prayed God to grant the family and the entire Owhelogbo community the fortitude to bear the loss.
