Senate President, David Mark has mourned the death of Presidential adviser, Oronto Douglas.
Douglas died of cancer-related complications on Thursday, April 9, 2015, at the State House Hospital in Abuja.
“It
is sad that Douglas died in his prime when the nation actually needed
his services. Douglas was a scholar in his own right. He was resourceful
and dedicated. He was a think tank who left a vacuum too difficult to
fill,” Mark said.
“I earnestly share in
this grief even as I pray that God in His infinite mercies grant the
immediate family the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss,” he added.
Douglas was President Goodluck Jonathan’s Special Adviser on Research, Documentation and Strategy before his death. He was 48-years-old.
