The year 2024 has seen the loss of several prominent Nigerian lawmakers, including Senator Ifeanyi Ubah from Anambra South. Other notable losses include Hon. Isa Dogonyaro, Hon. Oluyemi Akinremi, and Hon. Ekene Adams, leaving significant voids in their constituencies and impacting the legislative process.

The year 2024 has witnessed the tragic demise of several prominent Nigerian lawmakers serving in the 10th National Assembly. These losses have deeply affected the nation as each legislator played significant roles in their constituencies and contributed to the legislative process.

Additionally, Hon. Olaide Adewale Akinremi, representing the Ibadan North Federal Constituency, passed away at the age of 51. Akinremi was known for his contributions to legislative debates and his advocacy for his constituency.

Hon. Ekene Adams, a first-time member of the House of Representatives from the Labour Party (LP), also passed away this year at the young age of 39. Adams, who chaired the House of Representatives Committee on Sports, was remembered as a kind and gentle humanitarian.

The most recent case is that of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah, who represented the Anambra South senatorial district. Ubah passed away in the United Kingdom on July 27, 2024. His death has been a significant loss to his constituents and the nation.

Another notable loss is Hon. Isa Dogonyaro, a member of the House of Representatives representing the Babura/Garki Federal Constituency in Jigawa State. Dogonyaro, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), died two months before Ubah, leaving a void in his constituency.

These untimely deaths have left significant gaps in the Nigerian legislative process, and their contributions will be sorely missed by their colleagues and constituents. The nation mourns the loss of these dedicated public servants and continues to grapple with the implications of their absence in the political arena.
