The ruling All Progressives Party (APC) has lost its National Welfare Officer and a member of the National Working Committee.
Sir Friday Nwosu, a legal icon and former governorship candidate of PDP in Abia State before defecting to the ruling APC, died on Thursday.
Reports have it that the APC Welfare Officer was admitted in an undisclosed health facility in the Federal Capital Territory and he was discharged on Wednesday.
Nwosu reportedly went back to the same hospital for a routine check up on Thursday where he reportedly relapsed and had to be rushed into the intensive care unit where he gave up the ghost.
The demise of the national welfare officer was announced via the official Twitter handle of the APC at about 8.20 pm.
The statement reads,: “RIP SIR F.N. NWOSU. Words are not enough to describe the monumental loss brought by the passing of the party’s National Welfare Secretary, Sir Friday Nwosu, on the APC family. May his soul rest in peace.”
