December 15, 2023 • 1 min read

Chukwuemeka Ezeife, a former governor of Anambra state, has died.

Ezeife, who died on Thursday around 6:00pm, according to a statement issued by his family, was aged 85.

“On behalf of the Ezeife Dynasty of Igbo-Ukwu, I wish to announce the promotion to glory of our most distinguished son, Okwadike, Dr. Chukwuemeka Ezeife, CON, a former federal permanent secretary, the first executive governor of Anambra State, a former political adviser to the president and former presidential aspirant,” the statement signed by Rob Ezeife reads.

“This sad event took place yesterday at 6:00pm at the Federal Medical Centre, Abuja.

“More details about the deceased and the arrangements for his state burial will be announced later”, the statement added.

Ezeife was elected governor of Anambra on the platform of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) in Nigeria’s third republic in 1992.

He served as governor until Sani Abacha, ex-military ruler, seized the reins of power at the centre in 1993.

Ezeife obtained a BSc in Economics from the University College Ibadan, and a master’s and PhD degrees from Harvard University.

He was also appointed special adviser on political matters by ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo when Nigeria commenced its fourth republic in 1999.
