Aged 73, the late Ogbulafor was also an ex-national secretary of the PDP and former minister of National Planning during the past administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
The deceased politician left behind an aged mother, wife, children and siblings.
The burial ceremony attracted a cream of political bigwigs led by the Governor of Abia State, Dr Alex Chioma Otti.
Speaking earlier on the virtues of the late former PDP national chairman during a burial church service at the Holy Cross Catholic Church, Olokoro, in Umuahia South LGA, Governor Otti said the late Ogbulafor lived a good life and left many legacies behind.
He noted that the history of his political journey cannot be complete without Ogbulafor being mentioned.
The Ogbulafor family in a tribute given by the first son, Uchenna, appreciated Governor Alex Otti for the relationship that existed between him and their father.
The family further thanked the Governor, the deceased’s business and political associates, friends, admirers and the leadership of the PDP for coming to identify with them in their moment of mourning.
