Political activist, Angbo Kennedy wrote on social media on Sunday night: “I still haven’t accepted this death. You don’t usually allow good things to go so easily.

“Comr George Odoo isn’t dead, he’s just transited.
“He worked and walked with purpose, no wonder the chariots came for him so early.
“He was driven, he was focused, he was determined and bore no grudges. He filled our hearts with the urgency of now, the desire to accomplish, and the gut to stick it out even when it was difficult to do so. He was compassionate and firm in his belief.

“This death isn’t just for the parents whom I know would only be gazing into emptiness. It isn’t for the state, the one he died believing in.
“It isn’t for the nation, the one he shared birthday with.
“It is for the entire youths of Nigeria and I believe we owe him a befitting state burial as youths. Adieu my friend. Farwell my brother. Goodbye Comr. George Odoo.”
