Prominent Niger Delta leader and advocate, Comrade Mulade, has expressed deep sorrow over the passing of Chief E. K. Clark, describing him as a courageous voice for justice, a defender of the oppressed, and a tireless advocate for the development of the Niger Delta region.
Mulade expressed that Clark’s passing is a “big blow,” a painful loss that leaves a void difficult to fill, emphasizing that the elder statesman’s wealth of experience was still greatly needed.
Reflecting on Clark’s remarkable contributions to the nation, particularly in the Niger Delta, Mulade, an environmentalist and the Ibe-Serimowei of the Ancient Gbaramatu Kingdom in Warri south-west local government area of Delta State, noted that his legacy would not be forgotten soon.
He praised the late Pa Clark as a “fountain of knowledge” and a dynamic leader whose absence will be deeply felt.
On behalf of his family, Mulade extended heartfelt condolences to Clark’s immediate family, Delta State, and loved ones, acknowledging that he lived a fulfilled life.
Mulade prayed for Clark’s gentle soul to rest in perfect peace.
