Senator representing Anambra South district in the National Assembly, Ifeanyi Ubah is dead.
Senator Ubah was said to have departed Nigeria for the UK, two days ago. According to a close family source, he died in a UK hospital after complications from a recent tummy tuck surgery.
He would have been 53 on September 3.
Ubah had defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) from the Young Progressives Party (YPP) last year but later re-elected into the 10th Senate under the YPP.
The late Senator was billed to seek APC’s ticket ahead of the Anambra State governorship election.
Ubah was a prominent politician, entrepreneur, and businessman who founded Capital Oil (CCO) in 2001 and served as its CEO until his passing.
