Senator Tony Nwoye, Labour, Anambra North, has expressed shock over the death of his fellow Anambra Senator, Chief Ifeanyi Ubah describing it as a tragedy and big loss to Anambra State and the country.

In a statement personally signed by him, Dr Nwoye who called Ubah his big brother described how they had maintained a personal relationship despite their separate political trajectories.

Senator Nwoye in his statement on the death of Ubah, said:

“I received a rude shock this morning, the news of the death of my dear  senior brother, friend and colleague, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah fondly called “EbubechukwuUzo”.

“Senator Ifeanyi Ubah has been a long standing senior friend and compatriot. He was a renowned businessman who founded the famous Capital Oil and gas Ltd in 2001 before he ventured into politics.

“As a legislator he attracted  lots of projects and other democracy dividends for his people, contributed his quota in the  national discourse and debate.

“Honestly there can never be another like Ebubechukwuuzo who treated and regarded me as his younger brother and friend.

“Despite our different part affiliations, we remained faithful   and committed to our friendship.

“Ebubechukwuuzo was a philanthropist extraordinary who contributed immensely to  better humanity through his Ifeanyi Ubah Foundation, via which he cared for the less privileged in society, by investing in their education, and health and pulling people out of poverty. He was filled with milk of human kindness.

“On behalf of my family and the good people of Anambra North Senatorial district Anambra State, we pray that  God Almighty who called him home, at this time, forgive his sins and grant him eternal rest and grant his family, the entire Anambra South Senatorial District; Anambra State; Nigeria; and all of us, the fortitude to bear his sad irreplaceable loss Amen.

“We have really lost a rare gem, really an Iroko has fallen. What a monumental loss and huge tragedy!”
