former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has died.

Vincent Ogbulafor, a former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has died.

It was gathered that Ogbulafor died on Thursday in Canada at the age of 73 years.

A family member who pleaded anonymity has confirmed the sad development.

Ogbulafor is from Olokoro, in Umuahia South local government of Abia state. He was born on May 24, 1949, and died peacefully on Thursday night, the family source stated

Ogbulafor was first PDP’s National Secretary before he later became National Chairman after a bitter national battle between Senator Sam Egwu and Senator Anyim Pius Anyim. He was forced to resign as PDP national chairman by the powers that be when he fell out with them.

Ogbulafor was later charged with an alleged financial recklessness while serving as a minister.

He was reputed to have boasted that the PDP will rule for 40 years which did not come to pass, as the All Progressives Congress (APC) truncated that dream and eventually defeated it in 2015.
