The African Democratic Congress has extended its condolences to the party's vice-presidential candidate, Rotimi Amaechi, over the passing of his mother, Mrs Mary Amaechi.
In a statement, the party's National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, conveyed the party's sympathies to the entire Amaechi family as they mourn the loss of a matriarch whose love, guidance and strength, he said, helped shape generations.
The statement noted that a mother's influence extends far beyond the home, reflected in the values she instils, the sacrifices she makes and the lives she touches for the better.
Adding that while such a loss is immeasurable, the party hoped the family would draw comfort from a life well lived, cherished memories and the prayers of Nigerians mourning alongside them.
On behalf of the party's National Chairman, Senator David Mark, the National Working Committee and members across the country, the ADC prayed that Mrs Mary Amaechi finds eternal rest, and that her family is granted strength, comfort and peace in the days ahead.
