The African Democratic Congress has expressed condolences to its vice-presidential candidate, former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi. This comes following the death of his mother, Mrs Mary Amaechi, and Nigerians have been reacting.
Describing the late matriarch as a woman whose love, guidance and sacrifices helped shape generations, ADC prayed for strength and comfort for the bereaved family.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, added that Amaechi’s mum’s sacrifices for her family will not be forgotten.
His words, “The African Democratic Congress extends its deepest condolences to our Vice Presidential Candidate, His Excellency Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi, CON, on the passing of his beloved mother, Mrs Mary Amaechi. We also extend our sympathies to the entire Amaechi family as they mourn the loss of a matriarch whose love, guidance and strength helped shape generations.
A mother’s influence reaches far beyond the walls of her home. It is reflected in the values she imparts, the sacrifices she makes, and the lives she leaves better than she found them. While the pain of such a loss cannot be measured, we hope the Amaechi family will find comfort in a life well lived, in cherished memories, and in the prayers of millions of Nigerians who mourn with them today.
On behalf of our National Chairman, Senator David Mark, GCON, the National Working Committee, and members of our great Party across the country, we pray that Almighty God grants Mrs Mary Amaechi eternal rest, and grants her family strength, comfort and peace in the days ahead.”
