The lawmaker gave up the ghost as people around rushed him to Mary Martha Hospital, Oleh.

On Saturday, he attended the 2021 Second Quarter Meeting of the Conference of State Houses of Assembly held in Asaba, the Delta capital.

Ogba died months after the death of Isoko-born ex-Delta House Majority Leader, Tim Owhefere.

Owhefere, 57, died in January at the Federal Medical Centre, Asaba, during an illness.
