Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, a former minister of transportation, has sent his condolences to Chief Raymond Dokpesi’s family, saying that many people were shocked by his unexpected demise.

Dokpesi was hailed as an older statesman who made a substantial contribution to the growth of Nigeria’s broadcasting business in a statement from Amaechi’s media office.

“He was also a man who was concerned about the country’s political landscape and contributed his part in national politics. His death is indeed a huge loss not only to his family and the broadcasting industry but to the country, he added.
“I pray that God will grant his family and loved ones the fortitude to bear this great loss,” Amaechi said as he paid tribute to the late Chief Dokpesi.
