Lagos State House of Assembly has held a minute silence in honour of the late former Governor of old Anambra State, Chukwuemeka Ezeife.
Chukwuemeka Ezeife.
This was according to a statement by the Cheif Press Secretary to the Speaker, Eromosele Ebhomele.
Ezeife, who died at age 85, was buried recently while the House was on recess.
Speaker Mudashiru Obasa described the late politician as a pan-Nigerian who supported the Yorubas and the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO).
He commended the efforts of the late Governor, especially during the dark days of military reign and following the struggle for Chief MKO Abiola.
“We remember how he proudly stepped down for Olu Falae back then in 1999,” Dr. Obasa said.
