Ubah, re-elected to the 10th Senate under the Young Peoples Party, had switched to the All Progressive Congress last year.
In September 2022, Ubah survived an assassination attempt when gunmen attacked his convoy on his way to Nnewi in Enugwu-Ukwu, Anambra State.
The assault resulted in the deaths of at least five people, including two police officers. He escaped unharmed due to the bulletproof nature of his vehicle.
