The candidate of the Labour Party(LP), Mr Peter Obi, has lost his uncle and mentor, Chief Sylvester Nwobu- Alor.
When Obi was the governor of Anambra State, between 2006 and 2024, Chief Nwobu-Alor helped him to stabilize parks and markets in the state as the Governor’s aide in that sector.
It was a time when motor park touts under the guise of NARTO( National Association of Road Transport Owners) literally unleashed mayhem on the state.
But Nwobu-Alor had to tranquilize them via his political sagacity and native intelligence; he sanitized the system into this day.
In a attribute signed by one of his mentees and political sons, Sir Chris Chikwelu(Jr),Ichele-Agulu, he wrote, “My political mentor, a philosopher, an institution, a strategist and a purveyor of knowledge- Chief Hon Sylvester Nwobu Alor (Onwa-Agulu, Okaa Omee-Anaocha) has peacefully gone to be with the Lord.
“A two-time member that represented Njikoka South Central in the Old Anambra State House of Assembly.”
“You lived a good life, May your soul rest in perfect peace.
Your Mentee.
The RAZOR News team condoles with Agulu people and hundreds of mentees, fans and relations of this fallen Iroko tree. May his soul have rest before his creator.
RIP.
