The Executive Director Dr Salewa Ola of United African community ( UACO), on behalf of Africans in Diaspora commiserates with the family of the late Nigerian hero, Dim Chukwuemeka Odimegwu-Ojukwu whose death was reported today.
He described the death of the great Biafra leader as a big loss to Nigeria, Africa and the world. His Excellency Ojukuwu was one of my hero, said Dr Ola

He noted that the vacuum which Ojukwu’s death has created, will be difficult to fill because he was a great man who had a dream for a great nation where there will be justice, equity and fairness.

He prayed God to grant the Ojukwu’s family, the Igbo people and the entire Nigerians and Africa, the fortitude to bear the loss.
