A PDP leader in Delta State, Chief Godwill Obielum has described the death of Senator Pius Ewherido as painful and devastating.

Chief Obielum who was reacting to the death of Senator Ewherido, said the Senator who until his death, was representing Delta Central in the upper legislative chamber had a robust and fruitful political career as the first member of the Delta State House of Assembly, to win a Senatorial election.

According to him, Senator Ewherido did well as a politician who had a lot of followership while at the the House of Assembly and as a Senator, observing that his death was a great loss to his immediate family, the Delta Central Senatorial district and Deltans.

The political leader has urged members of Ewherido’s family and the people of Delta Central Senatorial District to accept the tragic event as “trial of our faith and take solace in God who knows the end of all mere mortals.”
