A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress [APC] from Imo State, Senator Ifeanyi Araraume, has mourned an elder statesman and President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Emmanuel  Iwuanyanwu, who passed on Thursday at the age of 82.

Araraume said the passing of Iwuanyanwu was painful,  happening particularly at a time that he was availing Ndigbo of the magnitude of his wisdom and counsel in his position as president-general of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.

He said with Iwuanyanwu’s death, “Ndigbo has lost a great leader; Nigeria has lost a  genuine patriot who believed and invested his faith in the fatherland.”

Araraume described Iwuanyanwu as an intrepid businessman who provided thousands of Nigerians with direct and indirect jobs in his various businesses that straddle a number of criitical sectors.

He said the elder statesman would be sorely missed.

While praying for the peaceful repose of his soul, Araraume commiserated with the family of Iwuanyanwu, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the Imo State Government and associates of the illustrious son of Imo State,  in Nigeria and the Diaspora, on his transition.
GWG.ng reports that Iwuanyanwu, a political and business colossus died on Thursday, July 25 after a brief illness.
