Senator Stella Oduah, representing Anambra North
Senatorial District in the upper chamber of the National
Assembly, on Friday lost her son, whose name had yet to
be known as of the time of filing this report.
Oduah’s son who was reported to be 28 years old died at a
private hospital in Abuja in the early hours of Friday.
Oduah, who was a Minister of Aviation in the administration
of former President Goodluck Jonathan, sounded distressed
on the phone when Punch newspaper contacted her on
Friday afternoon.
In a barely audible voice, she confirmed the report, saying
her son died after a brief illness.
One of Oduah’s colleagues, Senator Uche Ekwunife, who
represents Anambra Central in the Senate, also confirmed
the incident, saying:
“It is very unfortunate. It has shown that death and life
belong to God and it is only Him who controls our life. It is
a trying moment for her and all of us. I know how it feels as
a mother. It is only God who can console her.”
