Late Comrade (Chief) Alfred Etete

The Maritime Workers’ Union of Nigeria (MWUN), under the leadership of Comrade Francis Bunu Abi and his executive members has condemned in entirety the brutal murder of one of its own, Comrade (Chief) Alfred Etete.

Chief Etete, prior to his murder was a chief in his community of Agwut-Obolo, in Rivers state.
He was reportedly shot dead in cold blood by gunmen in his residence recently.

The late community leader, was a retired Vice President -General (VPG) of the Maritime Workers’ Union of Nigeria.

Late Etete was of Seamen Branch of the Union, and an active MWUN member in National Inland Water Ways Authority (NIWA) & Water Transport Branch of the Union before he diligently exited.

Comrade Etete served the Union meritoriously and conscientious until his retirement; with his colleagues during his active period, still testifying to his good conduct and his rare commitment to duty.

The President -General of MWUN, Comrade Bunu and the Executives, while deeply condemning the brutal killing of the former VPG of the Union Comrade Etete, said his notice of death came as a rude shock.
Comrade John Kennedy Ikemefuna, Head of Media, MWUN in a statement signed for the President General, said, “The Union deeply regrets the murder of Comrade (Chief) Etete, who meritoriously retired from the Union to serve his community with his vast experience and knowledge until his leadership and service to humanity was abruptly cut short by enemies of mankind and agents of the underworld.”

Comrade Bunu said Chief Alfred Etete was a very fine gentleman, a Comrade par excellence and a role model of note and worthy of emulation.
He said that late Comrade Etete served the Union diligently as VPG before his retirement.
Comrade Bunu further described late Etete as versatile in handling labour matters, noting that his strong penchant for relating with his fellow Comrades could be equated with anything else; adding that he was a jolly good Comrade who came, saw and conquered.

The Niger-Delta born labour activist, Bunu, thus, totally condemned the brutal killing, describing Etete as his senior Comrade and friend in the Union.
He prayed that his soul be granted eternal rest by the Almighty God, who knows the end from the beginning.

The MWUN PG also appealed to the security agencies, especially the police to fish out the killers for the sake of posterity and justice as nobody had the right to take any one’s life in cold blood and for any reason whatsoever.

However, Comrade Bunu is hopeful that the killers of the late community leader would be fished out by security agencies in the country; while sending the Union’s condolences to the immediate family of late Comrade Etete, believing that the Almighty God will not forsake the family he left behind.
