Wendy Uchechi Okah, the Ebonyi State Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development, is dead, according to SaharaReporters.

Her death was disclosed in a Facebook post by the Special Assistant to Governor David Nweze Umahi on Inter-party and Labour Matters, Mrs. Jennifer Adibe-Nwafor.

The deceased politician reportedly died on Friday.

“So saddened.. one of the women I love…Engr Uchechi Wendy Okah, Hon. Commissioner for Housing and Urban Development to Ebonyi State Governor before her death this morning….she was a hard-working woman and a heroine…we will surely miss you,” Adibe-Nwafor said.

Okah was accused of being involved in some criminal activities in the community, which he denied.
