He hails from Olokoro in Umuahia South Local Government of Abia State.

Ogbulafor, who was born on May 24, 1949, was the first PDP’s National Secretary before he later became the party’s National Chairman.

The deceased was, however, forced to resign his position after he fell out with some top PDP chieftains.

He was accused of financial recklessness while serving as a minister.
