A top Director in Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs is dead
The Director of Finance and Account of the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, Moses Chimereze Okpo, has been confirmed dead.
Late Moses Chimereze Okpo.
According to reports, Okpo died on Saturday, August 29, 2020.
Spokesperson to the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio, Ani Ekong, confirmed the director’s death.
He said Okpo had been ill for about a year before he eventually passed away during weekend.
When further checked on the cause of the death, Ekong said it was unrelated to COVID-19 as Okpo had fallen ill before the pandemic virus began.
“There’s been misinformation going on. People think that he was the Director that died in NDDC some months ago of COVID-19 and buried last week.
“But this man that died is the Director of Finance and Account in the ministry in Abuja and I learnt he’s been very sick for a long time of over a year before he passed on,” Ekong said.
