Governor Mbah Mourns Senator Ubah

Enugu State Governor Dr. Peter Mbah has expressed sadness over the death of the federal lawmaker representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, describing it as sunset at noon.

Mbah recalled the late senator’s legislative brilliance, regretting his death at a time when his ideas and humanitarian services to his constituents were most needed. He described it as a huge loss to the nation as a whole, and Ndigbo in particular.

“A young and ebullient leader, he had a sprawling and promising future ahead of him, which has now been cut short by the cold hands of death.

“Senator Ubah was committed to the Igbo cause and passionate about his service to the nation as a lawmaker. He was courageous on the floor of the Senate, intensive in his legislative advocacies, and sponsored quite a number of brilliant bills and motions that impacted the nation and its economy very positively.

“He was a true representative of his people, and very committed to addressing issues affecting them both in his official and personal capacities. He will be remembered for his philanthropy and various audacious efforts to better the welfare of his people.

“My heart goes out to his family, the Government and people of Anambra State, the Senate of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Ndigbo, and the nation in general,” the governor stated as he prayed for the repose of his soul.
