Nwaoboshi reportedly died after an illness that lasted for some months.

On Friday, the Delta State Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Festus Ahon, made a statement about the situation. In that statement, the Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori, shared his sadness over the death of a senator who represented the Delta North Senatorial District. He said the senator‘s passing is a big loss for Delta State, the Anioma people, and the whole country.

The governor, who is also the sheriff, said the late senator was a respected son of the state and a brave voice for the people of Anioma. He said the senator‘s efforts to help the country grow would never be forgotten.

“He is speaking on behalf of the government and people of Delta State, expressing his sadness over the death of his close friend, Senator Peter Onyelukachukwu Nwaoboshi,” the governor said.

“He also offered his deepest sympathy to the senator‘s family, the people of Anioma, members of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), and everyone whose lives he touched,” the governor added.

The governor remembered Nwaoboshi’s important work in the National Assembly, especially as chairman of the Senate Committee on Niger Delta Affairs, where he always worked hard to improve the region and the state.

He noted that the late lawmaker’s rise in politics was built on strong political heritage, selfless leadership and firm belief in democratic ideals, which also earned him two tenures as the chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State.

The governor described him as a devoted public servant who dedicated his life to the service of his people, his party and the country, leaving behind a legacy of courage, loyalty and commitment.

“Senator Nwaoboshi’s political journey and rise to prominence were anchored on a rich political pedigree, selfless service and unwavering commitment to the ideals of democracy, which also saw him serve meritoriously as a two-time Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Delta State,” the statement partly read.

According to the governor, the late lawmaker devoted his life to the service of his people, the party and the nation, leaving behind a legacy of courage, loyalty and dedication to public service.

Nwaoboshi was a member of the National Assembly from 2015 to 2023.
