Arthur Egwim, the lawmaker representing Ideato North constituency in the Imo state House of Assembly, is dead.

The two-term lawmaker died on Monday days after he underwent surgery in Lagos.

Egwim was first elected into the state House of Assembly in 2015 on the platform of the All Progressives Congress and was re-elected in 2019 with the Action Alliance party.

He contested the House of Representatives seat in the just-concluded National Assembly elections under the platform of All Progressives Grand Alliance but lost.

Emeka Nduka, Speaker of the House, in a statement issued on Tuesday described the deceased as “one of Imo’s finest and best legislators”.

“With heavy heart, but total submission to the will of God, we, the members of Imo state House of Assembly, wish to announce the death of one of our own, a ranking parliamentarian of note and a strong voice in IMHA, Rt. Hon. Barr. Arthur Egwim, who until his death represented Ideato-north state constituency,” the statement read.

“His sudden death took place on Monday, 27th March, 2023 after a brief illness.

“Imo House of Assembly has indeed lost one of its finest and best brains. His demise will for a long time create a vacuum in the House

“May his gentle soul rest in peace and may God grant his wife and members of his family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss. We will miss him dearly.”

According to a source, the lawmaker underwent surgery prior to his death.

“He was flown abroad for surgery but couldn’t make it. Imo government also assisted him to travel abroad for his medicals. It is indeed a rude shock.

“He was a vibrant lawmaker who was friendly to all. Just when he was about to hand over to the member-elect in June, he left.”
