Reports making round the town has it that member representing Ideato South at the Imo State House of Assembly, Hon. Eudora Igwe [Okwesilieze] is dead.
Okwesilieze till the time of her death was the All Progressives Grand Alliance [APGA] senatorial candidate for Orlu zone and reports have it that she died after a brief illness on the early hours of December 15, 2014.
Although there has not been any release from the family yet, but she will be missed dearly especially by indigent women whom her Adaoma Foundation has put food on their table. Her death will also be seen as a big blow for women in politics having established herself as one the fore members of the group.
Okwesilieze was the only woman in the Orlu Senatorial race; she was supposed to be running against incumbent Sen. Hope Uzodinma [PDP] and Sen. Osita Izunaso [APC].
May her soul rest in peace.
