Three members of the African Action Congress (AAC), Pastor Jones Abushe, Mr. Edris Sani, and Mr. Ernest Omamode Ojegba, have died after their vehicle fell into a river in Delta State.
This was disclosed in a statement on the Facebook page of the party’s presidential candidate in 2019, Omoyole Sowore on Wednesday evening.
According to the statement, three men were returning from a function of the Delta State chapter of the party when the incident occurred.
The statement read, “The African Action Congress party is sad to announce that we have lost three members from the Delta State AAC family. The men were returning from an outreach effort related to State AAC activities when their car fell into a river on a particularly bad stretch of road that has claimed many lives in the past.
“At this dark time, we mourn the loss of these brave men, and ask all of our members to pray that their patriotic and revolutionary souls rest in peace. The deceased include Pastor Jones Abushe, Mr. Edris Sani, and Mr. Ernest Omamode Ojegba – all of them people who were tired of the status quo in their state and seeking to bring about positive transformation.
“We also use this opportunity to remember and pray for their families that they might find the strength to bear this tragic loss.
“We continue to rise and seek for better infrastructure, better care for our citizens, and more value to human lives even as we grieve.
“May the souls of the dearly departed rest in peace.”
