A member of the Anambra State House of Assembly, Hon Nnamdi Okafor has been announced dead.
Okafor, who represents Awka South State constituency 1, is also the majority leader of the State Assembly.
The two-time lawmaker reportedly slumped in a hotel in South Africa, where he is holidaying.
A source, who announced the death in a political WhatsApp group said, “The Majority Leader of Anambra State House Of Assembly and Member representing Awka South Constituency 1, Hon. Nnamdi Okafor (Akajiugo Awka) collapsed in the early hours of today in a Hotel at Sandton City Johannesburg, South Africa and was confirmed dead hours later.
“Cause of his death is yet to be ascertained as of the time
of filing this report. May His Gentle Soul Rest In Peace, Amen.”
Most members of the Anambra State House of Assembly have
been in South Africa on holiday for close to a month, since the Assembly went
on recess.
Okafor’s death has, however, not been officially confirmed
by the leadership of the State Assembly.
The deceased is a United States of America trained
pharmacist, and runs a pharmaceutical company, with diagnostic services.
