Professor Amos Agbe Utuama SAN, the former Deputy Governor of Delta State, has passed away at the age of 77.
Utuama, who served from 2007 to 2015 under former Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan, died early Saturday morning in Lagos after a prolonged illness.
Born on June 5, 1947, Utuama was a prominent legal figure and served as Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General of Delta State under former Governor James Ibori.
