”You bestrode the landscape of football in Anambra like a colossus and your footprints are indelible.

”You took Anambra to the world with FC Ifeanyi Ubah, your massive Stadium in Nnewi remains a legacy that will last for a long time.

”As a body of sports writers in Anambra, we will miss you greatly just as we pray that your soul finds rest in the bosom of the Lord Almighty,” Anaso said.

The late lawmaker was the chairman of Anambra State Football Association between 2015-2019 and Founder, FC Ifeanyi Ubah ( now defunct) – one of the most successful football clubs from Anambra.

He was a philanthropist, politician, two-time senator and a top contender for Anambra 2025 Governorship position.(NAN)
