The president of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, George Obiozor is dead.

The statement reads, “On behalf of the government and people of Imo state, I, Sen Hope Uzodimma, the Executive Governor of Imo state, sorrowfuly  announce the passage of a great Son of Imo state and Nigeria, the President General of ohanaeze Ndigbo, worldwide, Prof George OBIOZOR.

“A renowned academic, an exceptional diplomat and statesman and a tenacious patriot, Prof George Obiozor  passed on recently after a brief illness.

The death of this foremost Igbo leader and former NIGERIA’S ambassador to the United States and the State of Israel, is a big loss to Imo state, the South East and the entire Nigeria. I have no doubt that both Nigeria and the international community will miss his profound intellectual contributions and wise counsel on national and global issues.

Sad, death is the inevitable end of every mortal.

May his soul rest in peace, too many people have left us this month of December.

I also lost a colleague at work just last week

Buhari and Tinubu will soon send their condolences.

Everyone will die when it is time, but I wonder why lunatics will sit their sorry arsses somewhere and start wishing death for people's parents, grandparents, husbands, uncles etc.

RIP

We have been seeing news of his death since two days ago.

Say RIP and move on. Too much talk dey bring confusion like mixing up EM wave with DNA Helix.

RIP

He was an old man who should never have taken up the position of President of Ohanaeze in these trying times. I dont know who brought him out of retirement for such a demanding job. He should have enjoyed his retirement

RIP George Obiozor
