Senator Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah will be committed to the mother earth today with a requiem mass St Peter Claver Catholic, Umuanuka, Otolo Nnewi.
As part of the remarkable final journey by Senator Dr Ifeanyi Ubah, his body will be received at the Igwe Nnewi palace this morning. His Royal Highness Igwe Dr KON Orizu III along with his cabinet members and some of the community’s stakeholders will this morning receive the Distinguished Senator Ubah’s remains for the last time.
It should not be a surprise that Senator Ubah is being accorded the highest honor as an Nnewi illustrious son. It is quite reciprocal for all that the late Senator Ubah has done for Nnewi and Nigeria in general.
HRH Igwe Nnewi will express those sentiment, because the town is hurting because of the loss of its champion.
The Crown Prince, Dr Obi Orizu had expressed sorrow for the untimely demise of Ebubechukwuzo Nnewi, and lamented that the late Senator Ubah will be missed so much, because he is irreplaceable.
