The Senate on Tuesday paid glowing tributes to the late Senator Peter Nwaoboshi, who represented the Delta North Senatorial District in the Ninth Assembly.

During plenary, Senate President Godswill Akpabio also announced automatic employment for the two sons of his police rider, Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Hussani Ibrahim, who died in a ghastly motor accident on the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway on Sunday.

Tributes to Nwaoboshi followed a motion moved by Senator Joel-Onowakpo Thomas (APC, Delta South). Separately, a motion honouring the late DSP Ibrahim and Alhaji Ibrahim Tukur—who also died recently—was moved by Senator Sunday Karimi (APC, Kogi West). Tukur served as the driver to Senator Jibrin Isah (Echocho), representing Kogi East, for 25 years.

The Senate observed a minute’s silence in honour of Nwaoboshi, Akpabio’s police rider, and Senator Isah’s long-serving driver.

Lawmakers commiserated with the family of the late Nwaoboshi, as well as the government and people of Delta State. The Senate also expressed condolences to the family of DSP Ibrahim and to the Senate President over the tragic loss.

Announcing the automatic employment of the late officer’s two sons, Akpabio informed his colleagues of the accident during plenary. DSP Ibrahim, who served as the Senate President’s rider, has since been buried according to Islamic rites.

In a heartfelt tribute, Akpabio described the late officer as a man who deeply understood the value of work and service.

“Your late father understood the value of work and service. He devoted himself to it. Unfortunately, instead of earning a laurel for his devotion, he earned death. But it is a death not in vain; a death that testifies to his legacy of service. May the Lord accept his soul,” Akpabio said.

He extended condolences to the bereaved family, the Inspector General of Police, and the Nigeria Police Force.

“I commiserate with the family, the Inspector General of Police, and the Nigeria Police Force over the loss of this courageous, fearless, and daring officer. While I pray that God accepts his soul, may He grant the family and the Nigeria Police Force the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss,” he added.

The Senate President’s offer of automatic employment for DSP Ibrahim’s sons was described as a gesture of support to the family in recognition of the officer’s sacrifice and service.

In a related development, the Senate also honoured the late Alhaji Ibrahim Tukur, a committed driver who served Senator Jibrin Isah for 25 years, observing a minute’s silence and praying for the repose of the souls of the departed.
