The Delta State Governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, has commiserated with the Publisher of theVanguard newspapers, Sam Amuka, on the death of his mother, Teshoma Amuka-Pemu.
The governor, in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Sunny Ogefere, said although she lived a fulfilled life and had the gift of old age from God, yet her death was still a big loss.
Uduaghan said: “I give all the glory to God who not only blessed the matriarch of the Amuka family with the gift of life but made her a role model and a source of blessing to her immediate family, Delta State and Nigeria.
“The success story of Mr. Sam Amuka publisher of one of the leading titles in Nigeria, the Vanguard Newspaper, no doubt is an eloquent testimony of the nature of training and upbringing that he received from his late mother.”
While urging the family to take solace in the good and rewarding life of the matriarch he said: “I share in the grief that the death of Mama Teshoma has brought on the Amuka-Pemu family.”
