Reps Member, Aguocha Extols Late Chief Ibelegbu As He’s Laid To Rest In Umuahia (Video)

Member representing Ikwuano/Umuahia federal constituency of Abia State, Hon. Obi Aguocha has extolled the life and time of Chief Sir Appolos Ulonnamefula Ibelegbu (Aha eji aga mba 1 of Afarata Ibeku) who was on Thursday laid to rest at his home town, Umuakaka Nkata, Afarata Ibeku Umuahia North LGA, Abia State.

The lawmaker while paying his last respect described Chief Ibelegbu as a committed Christian, an excellent father figure to many, who also was a good man.

He applauded the late Chief Ibelegbu for tracking birth record of those born in the community, which was manifestly displayed on his wall, tracking record of the genealogy of his family, and where they would be when he is no more.

Hon. Aguocha also eulogised late Ibelegbu for always standing firmly by the truth despite intimidation.

“That truth he stood for is actually what has made me a member of the House of Representatives, he believed in the sanctity of truth, commitment of truth, and I believe the family will continue in that footstep”, he stated.

While praying for his peaceful repose, the House of Representatives member therefore called on the bereaved family to take solace in the exemplary life led by their late father.
