Ayogu Eze, a former Senate spokesman from Enugu State has been reported dead.

The Senator represented Enugu North Senatorial District in the National Assembly.

Eze died in an Abuja Hospital after a protracted illness, sources close to the family said.

Reports indicated that the late Senator has been down; a situation that made him unable to attend his child’s wedding ceremony held earlier in the year in Lagos State.

He was a founding member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) before he defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) where he ran for Enugu State governorship election in the 2023 general election.
