The Commissioner for Housing, Ebonyi State, Uche Okah has died from an undisclosed illness.
It was learnt that Uche died on Friday at a hospital in Abuja.
Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State commiserated with the husband of the deceased Celestine Okah, according to a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Francis Nwaze on Saturday.
The governor described the late Uche as a dependable ally in the success story of Ebonyi State under his administration.
The statement read: “We have received with rude shock the sad news of the abrupt demise of your amiable wife and dependable asset to our Government, Late Engineer Mrs. Uche Okah.
“No doubt, her demise has placed a lot of responsibility on your shoulders, but we encourage you to hope in the Lord for comfort bearing in mind that both my Family and Government are saddened by this unfortunate incident and we all share with you in this moment of grief.”
Umahi, however, asked the deceased family to put their faith in the Lord instead of grieving as people without hope.
He petitioned God to grant the departed rest in his bosom and grant the family the fortitude to bear the loss.
