The publication also said Ubah’s colleagues in the Senate have confirmed his passing in a group chat on an unnamed social media platform, where tributes had already started pouring in for the deceased.
However, the report didn’t state the cause of his death and when the incident occurred.
The lawmaker’s death comes days after his campaign council donated a whooping ₦71 million to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Anambra State to bolster the party’s presence and strength ahead of the 2025 governorship election.
A breakdown of the donation includes ₦50 million from Senator Ubah himself, ₦5 million each from Princess Esom Nwafor Orizu, Prince Emeka Egwuekwe (Apakata Onyi Enugwu-Agidi), and Chief Chinedu Okeke (Ekwe Ogidi), ₦3 million from Lord Michael Mbanefo, ₦2 million from Arinze Awogu (Ikemba Front), and ₦1 million from Hon. Acobarry Chukwuma.
The gesture was part of his pledge to support the party and enhance its effectiveness in the South-East state.
Since the oil mogul’s entrance into the APC, there has been a noticeable increase in the party’s strength and support in the region.
Ubah was billed to seek the APC ticket to contest the Anambra State governorship election next year.
