The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed grief over the death of its National Vice Chairman, South-South, Dan Orbih, directing that party flags be flown at half-mast for three days in his honour.

The party described Orbih’s death as a significant loss to the PDP and the wider Nigerian political community, praising his years of commitment and service to the party.

Orbih, a prominent Edo State politician, was widely recognised as a strong voice within the PDP and played a major role in the party’s activities in the South-South region.

In its reaction, the PDP extended condolences to Orbih’s family, political associates, friends and members of the party who worked with him throughout his political career.

The party said his contributions to the development and strengthening of the PDP would not be forgotten.

As part of the mourning arrangements, the PDP directed all its offices and structures to fly the party’s flags at half-mast for three days as a mark of respect for the late politician.

The party also called on its members to honour Orbih’s memory by remembering his commitment to the party and his contributions to political development in Nigeria.

Orbih’s death has triggered reactions from political figures and stakeholders across the country, with many describing him as an experienced politician who remained deeply involved in party affairs for decades.

The PDP said further details concerning funeral arrangements and other activities to honour the late party leader would be communicated in due course.
