Chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State, Chief Lawrence Agbatutu, has been reported dead.

Agbatutu, until his death, was the PDP chairman at Ughelli North Local Government Area of the state.

Ovie Success Ossai, one of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa’s aides, made the announcement on his Facebook page on Monday morning.“

“We just lost Ughelli North PDP Chairman, Hon. Lawrence Agbatutu. May his soul RIP,” he quipped.

Recall, two members of the Delta State House of Assembly from both Isoko North and South also died early this year.
