“This is, indeed, a big blow to the party, the Igbo and Nigerians in general,” he said.
The APC national chairman said Ubah made significant contributions to the nation and particularly the party.
Ganduje described Ubah as a “great leader of the APC in the South East” and an uncommon philanthropist as well as business mogul.
The APC leader said the late senator made significant contributions to shaping Nigeria’s oil and gas industry, both as a major player and later as the chairman of the Senate Committee on Petroleum Downstream.
“On behalf of APC, Ganduje extends his condolences to the family, friends, and associates of Ubah, as well as to the people of Anambra South and the Nigerian Senate.”
He prays that everyone grieving at this saddening time finds the courage and fortitude to rise above the irreparable loss.
