It saddens my heart that we lost him at this critical time in the nation’s history that both the state and the country really needed his wealth of experience in governance.

History will treat him kindly, He will be remembered as a man who served Anambra state and the nation with distinction and provided impactful leadership whenever he was called upon.’

“On behalf of my family and staff at Stelconic Properties Limited, we join the Ezeife family and entire Ndi Anambra in mourning a father and most importantly a leader for us People of Anambra State.

My prayer is that the good Lord receive him in heaven,”  He prayed.
