BY SEGUN ADEBAYO, ABUJA – The Middle Belt Forum (MBF) has described Chief Edwin Clark as the symbol of exemplary leadership aimed at serving the Nigerian people.
In a statement signed by the President of the MBF. Dr Pogu Bitrus, the Forum described the attainment of 93 years by the Ijaw leader as a milestone and prayed earnestly to God to grant his wisdom and strengthen him.
According to the statement, “The attainment of yet another additional year to the life of Chief Edwin Clark marks another milestone to the inspiring life of a nationalist and patriot whose sterling contributions to national development remain unprecedented. As someone whose zeal for service put him on national limelight early in life, he has remained loyal to the cause of the people.
