Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who represented Anambra South in the National Assembly, has passed away.
The Chief Executive Officer of Capital Oil reportedly died in a London hotel in the United Kingdom on Saturday.
He would have turned 53 on September 3.
Senate spokesperson, Yemi Adaramodu, confirmed Ubah’s passing.
Ubah was re-elected into the 10th Senate under the Young People’s Party and had defected to the All Progressive Party last year.
In September 2022, Ubah survived an assassination attempt when gunmen attacked his convoy on his way to Nnewi in Enugwu-Ukwu, Anambra State.
His bulletproof vehicle saved him as his convoy was shot at, resulting in the death of at least five individuals, including two policemen.
Further details will be provided soon.
