Utomi Slumps, Dies In Asaba
Joe Utomi, immediate past Commissioner for Agriculture in Delta State, is dead.
BIGPEN Online understands, the deceased passed on after he reportedly slumped on Friday evening in Asaba, the state capital.
Details of his death were sketchy as of press time but President of Ubulu-Uku Development Union (UDU) and a close ally of the late politician, Jones Ofunne, confirmed the report.
Ofunne said he was shocked when he heard about the sad incident, describing Utomi as a man full of life.
Utomi is a native of Ubulu-Uku in Aniocha South Local Government Area of the state and one of the commissioners appointed in the last lap of the first tenure of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa owing to a minor cabinet shake up.
He was a one time council chairman for Aniocha South LGA.
Utomi was said to be one of the pillars of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the party’s easy triumph in Aniocha South during the 2019 general elections.
