This morning, I received the most terrible news. A beloved younger brother, Chinonso Hillary Ugboma (Onowu Jege123), passed away in the early hours of today.
This sudden loss is a big blow to all who knew Jege. If I am to rank the young leaders in our party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), in terms of commitment, resourcefulness, and loyalty, Jege will come on top of that list. He was a brilliant young man who served in the VCO Campaign Organisation and was part of the team that ensured that we won Ogbaru Local Government Area against all odds.
Jege lent his talent to produce one of my favourite campaign songs. When I was looking for a youth leader to lead the drive for voter registration early this year, Jege volunteered to lead the effort. That was him, constantly making himself available to help. His last activity before his passing was in service to his community.
I have just spoken to his dear wife, Chinenye Hope Ugboma and some of the leaders of our party in Ogbaru. I pray that the Lord will comfort her and their three children – Somto (Chinonso Jnr), Olamma, and Chinua.
We have lost a treasure, but Heaven has gained a Cherub. Jege, rest in peace.
