Ali Ndume, senator representing Borno South, has called on the Senate to support Uchenna Ubah, the wife of the late senator Ifeanyi Ubah, to succeed him in representing Anambra South.

Ndume made the appeal during a valedictory session held on Tuesday to honour the late lawmaker, who passed away in July 2024 at the age of 52.

Speaking to his colleagues, Ndume emphasized the importance of preserving Ubah’s legacy and aspirations by allowing his wife to step into his role.

“This has happened before. When Chuba Okadigbo, a great politician, passed away, his wife, Margery, joined the senate and carried on his legacy,” he said.

Ndume also cited examples of other political figures who continued family legacies in public office, including Oluremi Tinubu, who he said was supported by the goodwill of Lagosians and her husband’s legacy, and Abdulaziz Yar’Adua, who sustained the legacy of the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua by joining the Senate.

“What I want to appeal to you, Mr. President, is that we keep the spirit and aspirations of Ifeanyi alive. His wife, fortunately, is around 50 years old and has been a wonderful support system to him,” Ndume added.

Ndume concluded by saying, “Finally, Mr. President, my appeal to you and distinguished colleagues, his wife, fortunately, is 50 years or so. A wonderful wife.

“Let us support the family to have a spirit representative of Ifeanyi here in the chamber when the election of Anambra of the senatorial district that he represents comes up.

“This will ensure continuity and honour for the Anambra south senatorial district.”
