The immediate past spokesman of the Rivers State Police Command Nnamdi Omoni was found dead in his home on Tuesday, his successor Grace Iringe-Koko has revealed.
Omoni, the longest-serving police spokesman in the state, is believed to have died in his sleep.
He gathered friends, family and well-wishers last Friday to celebrate his birthday in Port Harcourt.
Soon after his promotion to the rank of superintendent of police, he was deployed to the Elimgbu Police Station in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of the state as the divisional police officer.
Omoni hailed from Rundele in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Iringe-Koko said a statement would be released on Omoni’s death.
His demise came exactly one year after his former deputy spokesman and world-class volleyball player, Christian Udogu, died.
Udogu was with his family on August 5, 2021, watching a programme on television when he suddenly complained of chest pain and slumped.
