He said that Prestige was a good representative of his constituency in the National Assembly who touched many lives through his business engagements and charity outreach such as the “Prestige Ossy Foundation and The Favoured Initiatives.’’
Lawan commiserated with his family, friends, and political associates over his irreparable loss.
He also condoled with the Government and people of Abia and prayed that God Almighty would grant them the fortitude to bear the loss. (NAN)
