Ebonyi Governor, Umahi Loses Second Commissioner In Five Weeks

Fidelis Nweze

Fidelis Nweze, the Ebonyi state commissioner for infrastructure development, is dead.

SaharaReporters reports that Nweze died in a hospital in Abuja due to injuries he sustained in an auto crash earlier in the week.

“So hard to say Rest In Peace, Engr. Nweze Fidelis before his death was a Commissioner for Infrastructure and Concession (sic) to the Ebonyi State Governor. One of the best brains in the government,” a government official told SaharaReporters.

Nweze’s death comes barely five weeks Uche Okah, the then Commissioner for Land and Housing in Ebonyi state died.

Okah died on May 15 at a hospital in Abuja, where she was receiving treatment over an undisclosed illness.
