Isoko Development Union-Nat'l

‎The Doyen of Academic - Prof. Chris Akpotu, Receives Rotary Club Award
‎
‎"Life is judged by the memories ignited by services. "The true veracity of Prof. Chris Akpotu's unadulterated services to mankind, either as a profound lecturer or leader is tremendously alluring and inspirational.
‎
‎From the date you took over the gavel of leadership and mantle of authority as Isoko Development Union (IDU) President General -- the apex social-cultural group of Isoko Nation, you got a universal acceptance like the sound of a "talking drum," which now induced ROTARY CLUB to bestow on you this revered Humanitarian Service Award -- 13th June 2025. It's incredible!
‎
‎"Though there's no perfect leadership in any part of the world, yours is not exceptional. Life is a series of experiences. Yes, you started with notable and unchallengeable strides, and you'll end strong, etching your name in the annals of history, through personal services, on account that there is a PRICE before the PRIZE. We are aware that, the boisterous sea of good leadership is never without a wave. We will cross over.
‎
‎In conclusion, Isoko people are impressed ~ We have eyes and can see. We are proud of you as an asset. This award is predicated on honour, on the sacredness of obligations, and on faithful resilience to service. Truly, character makes a man. Sir, your honour is our honour, and while appreciating the vastitude of love demonstrated by the presenters, on behalf of the Isoko people, we say Congratulations on your well-deserved auspicious award. We pray to God to increase your success stories and the sustenance of peace in Isoko land.
‎
‎My warmest Congratulations!

The Death Of Mr. Edward Obobolo; Big Loss To Isoko Development Union.

We regret to announce the exit of our dear friend and colleague, Mr. Edward Obobolo, who died after a brief illness at Ughelli. Regardless of the fact that the scriptures said; "We should give thanks in all circumstances," the death of our colleague is painful, shocking and heartbreaking.

Until his demise, he was the National Treasurer, Isoko Development Union (IDU), a defender of Isoko social/cultural ethos. A man with an unquenchable appetite for service to humanity.

"As an ethnic nationality, we are aware that, the death of Obobolo Edward is a monumental loss to Isoko people as a forensic treasurer with creative leadership perception. Only God knows what is good for us as mortals.

On behalf of Isoko nation, I condole with Avaira Community, the wife, children and members of the family over the demise of their father, Mr. Edward Obobolo, who passed away March 13, 2024. Our prayer is with the family. While praying God to give them the fortitude to bear this great loss, we pray that, may God Almighty grant his soul eternal rest.
