Senate set to honour late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah

The Senate is set to honor the late Senator Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah with a valedictory session.

The casket bearing the remains of the former Anambra South Senator is currently lying in state at the foyer of the White House wing of the National Assembly Complex.

Today’s order paper includes a single agenda item titled “Valedictory Session.”

At the start of the plenary, Senate Leader Opeyemi Bamidele (APC – Ekiti Central) will move a motion.

“That the Senate do now pay tributes in honour of late Senator Ubah, Patrick Ifeanyi (Anambra South) (3rd September, 1971 – 26th July, 2024).”

Family members, close associates, and political leaders from Anambra and other South-East states have gathered at the Senate chamber to witness the solemn session.

Gistreel recalls that Senator Ifeanyi Ubah passed away on July 27, 2024, in London at the age of 52.
