Tompolo mourns Gbagi

 ... describes him as person who always sought the interest of others above his interest.

High Chief Dr. Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo has expressed shock and dismay over the death Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi, a former Minister of State for Education and former Governorship Candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP in the 2023 general elections in Delta State.

Tompolo  who spoke through his aide, Dr. Paul Bebenimibo, who paid a condolence visit to the family of the deceased at Oginibu, Ughelli South LGA, said  the death of the business mogul was  sudden and untimely, as he had  his good intentions in developing Delta State in particular  and Nigeria in general.

According to him, the deceased was a good man who always sought the interest of others above his interest. 

"He was a strict and disciplinarian but was misunderstood by a section of the society. He came, saw, and left quietly. Indeed, God gave and it was God that allowed him to go and rest at this time. We will surely miss him," he said.

Tompolo further told the family  members to take solace on the ground that, their father, brother and grandfather, was able to do his best for God and mankind before his death. 

 Responding, one of Olorogun Kenneth Gbagi's sons, Egba Gbagi  who spoke on behalf of the family members, thanked  Tompolo for finding time to visit the family in their trying time. The family promised to inform him(Tompolo) when the date of the burial ceremony is fixed.
