9 YEARS IN MIND

Distinguished Senator Pius Akpor Ewherido (1963 – 2013) was a pillar of human support for the development of Urhobo language.

We at SENATOR EWHERIDO LANGUAGE RESOURCE CENTRE, WARRI and Urhobo Studies Association, DELSU, Abraka celebrate his contributions to Urhobo language revitalization and documentation.

He gave several merit scholarships of hundreds of thousands of Naira to students of Linguistics and Urhobo studies at Delta State University, Avwraka

He gave the first bulk donation that enabled the Urhobo Studies Association to be able to produce the Urhobo Language curriculum for Universal Basic Education (1-9).

There were many more contributions.
