Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ghali Umar Na’Abba, breathed his last in the early hours of Wednesday in Abuja, according to family sources.
Citymirror news learnt that he passed on in the early hours of Wednesday at the age of 65 after battling an illness.
Born on September 27, 1958, Na’Abba, aged 65, battled a prolonged illness before succumbing to it.
