The President General of Ohanaeze
Ndigbo Worldwide, Chief John Nnia Nwodo has described the former Minister of
Information and the leader of South South umbrella body Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF),
Chief Edwin Kiagbodo Clark as a rare patriot and an extra ordinary nationalist
the country should be proud of.
Chief Nwodo said in a birthday message
he sent to the nonagenarian who is 93 years today, May 25, 2020 that his
commitment to justice and truth in our land sets him out as a humanist who
desires fairness in our country.
The Ohanaeze President General said
that since the independence of Nigeria nearly 60 years ago, Chief Clark has
remained dogged in the struggle for a just and equitable society.
Nwodo in the message he personally
signed admonished young leaders to learn a lot from the selfless quality in
Chief Clark and eschew the self aggrandizement that is inherent in the leaders
of today.
He said that Chief Clark's commitment
for a better and equitable Nigeria even at an age he should be resting is
unparalleled and sets him out as an outstanding leader who is desirous to
bequest a greater Country to the younger generation.
In wishing more prosperous years ahead
Chief Nwodo thanked God almighty for keeping Clark going at his age in struggle
for a better Nigeria.
