By Monday Peters, Abuja

Elder Asu Beks, a veteran writer and publisher has paid tribute to the late Deputy Governor of Bayelsa State, Senator Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, describing him as a passionate advocate for the Agge Deep Seaport Project and the Marine and Blue Economy.

In a statement, Asu Beks recalled his interactions with Senator Ewhrudjakpo, noting that despite not being close, he admired his dedication to the economic emancipation of the Niger Delta people.

The late Deputy Governor’s vision for the Agge Deep Seaport was cut short by his untimely passing, leaving many in shock and sorrow.

Asu Beks fondly remembered Senator Ewhrudjakpo’s jovial nature, recounting their last encounter at the Bayelsa Media Awards in October, where he represented Governor Douye Diri.

Senator Ewhrudjakpo’s legacy and impact on the Niger Delta region will be remembered, and his passing leaves a void in the hearts of those who knew him.
