Former Minister of Agriculture, Audu Ogbe, who died on Saturday, August 9, was said to have died peacefully in his sleep.
Naija News reports that family sources who spoke to the Nation revealed that the former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) did not show any signs of a previous ailment or complain of any symptoms before going to bed.
Ogbe’s daughter-in-law, Ann Ochanya Ali, said the elder statesman told them that he wanted to rest and lie down, and in the early hours of the morning, he peacefully died.
The PDP chieftain, in a recent interview, expressed concern about the country’s future, stating that he was not happy with the signs he was seeing.
In the interview, Ogbe said, “I am rather a sad person because I can see danger ahead. I don’t see why we are hoping that the younger generation would wake up one day and start dancing for joy. Each one of those young men is sending money home to his mother, a cousin or sister who believes that they are in Abuja, and therefore, have money.
“But they just don’t have money. And their number is increasing they are leaving the villages for the cities. They arrive in the cities and the conditions are absolutely impossible. And they can’t go back to the village unless there are things that will actually call them back home.
“Believe me, I am a sad person. I tried to find happiness but I am scared of the future. I may not be here, I am way over 70, heading to 80, but I don’t like what I smell. It is very depressing”.
