Gov. Chukwuma Soludo of Anambra Atate, has expressed shock and grief over the sudden demise of vibrant politician and businessman Sen. Ifeanyi Ubah, today in London at the age of 52.
In his condolence message, Soludo lamented that the untimely death of Sen. Ubah, Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial zone, came as a sorely regrettable loss to Anambra South and Anambra State as a whole.
He said that the sudden death occurred at a difficult time when Ndigbo and Nigeria just lost another patriot in Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.
In a statement signed by his Press Secretary, Mr Christian Aburime, the governor described Ubah as a prominent son of Anambra state and an outstanding Nigerian whose impact on the polity and business sphere was quite significant.
“As the representative of Anambra South Senatorial District at the National Assembly, and the CEO of Capital Oil, his contributions to the development of Anambra state and Nigeria were also quite commendable
“Besides, Ubah was a magnanimous philanthropist whose generosity touched countless lives as an employer of labour and a businessman of remarkable vision and acumen,” Soludo said.
The governor further remarked that, despite their political differences and contestations, Ubah remained a dear younger brother and friend to him as his selfless passion for the progress of the state would be most missed.
Soludo conveyed his deepest condolences to Ubah’s family, friends, and associates during this difficult time.
He prayed that the soul of the deceased rest in perfect peace as the family finds strength in his memorable legacies.
