He ran on the People's Democratic Party (PDP) platform.[1] He defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress in February 2017; the leadership crises engulfing the former ruling party PDP may have motivated his decision.[1] Early careerUba was born on 14 December 1958 in Enugu, and attended the Boys High School in Awkunanaw. His parents originated from Uga in the Aguata LGA of Anambra State. According to some sources,{{which|date=December 2018}} he was admitted to Concordia University in Montreal, Canada, graduating in 1984 with a degree in Geology.{{cn|date=November 2018}} Presidential aideWhile still in the United States Uba assisted in the 1999 Presidential elections in Nigeria.{{How|date=December 2018}} Following the elections he returned to Nigeria and was appointed Special Assistant on Special Duties and Domestic Affairs to President Olusegun Obasanjo.[1] In a September 2003 visit by Obasanjo to the United States, Uba was described as the President's right-hand man, and also the gatekeeper for people who wished to talk to the President.{{citation needed|date=December 2018}} Elected politicianIn 2007 Uba contested in the PDP primaries for the Anambra State governorship election, and was elected in the 14 April 2007 elections.[1] However, the former governor Peter Obi challenged the election, saying that because the courts had only accepted that Obi had won the April 2003 elections on 15 March 2006, he still had three more years or his four-year term to serve. The courts accepted this argument and on 14 June 2007 nullified Andy Uba's election.[2] In November 2009 it was reported that Uba was planning to run for the delayed Anambra State gubernatorial elections in February 2010 on the Labour Party platform,[3] after the Labour party had invited him to make the move.[4] The party's leadership said they "believed that he will deliver on the ideals and objectives of the party".[5] Speaking about his decision to switch parties, on 31 December 2009 Uba said "Labour is my natural political home".[6] In the February 2010 elections, Uba came in third.[7] 2011 Senate electionUba returned to the PDP and was nominated as PDP candidate for Anambra South Senatorial district in the April 2011 elections. He won with 63,316 votes, ahead of Chukwmaeze Nzeribe of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) with 43,798 and the incumbent senator Ikechukwu Obiorah of the Accord party with 24,724. Uba's election was challenged by Senator Obiora, the Accord candidate, who claimed that Uba had forged his West African School Certificate (WASC) and had not obtained any of the university degrees that he claimed. The story of allegedly faked degrees dates back to a story written by two investigative reporters and published by The News in December 2006.[8] Reporters claim that both Concordia and California State University said that although Uba enrolled, he did not graduate from either university.[13][9] References1. ^http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/222309-anambra-senator-andy-uba-dumps-pdp-apc.html [10][11]2. ^{{cite news |first=Camillus |last= Eboh |title=Close Obasanjo ally loses governor's seat in Nigeria |url=http://news.oneindia.in/2007/06/14/close-obasanjo-ally-loses-governors-seat-in-nigeria-1181846501.html |publisher=OneIndia News |date= 2007-06-14 |accessdate=2011-06-15}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.modernghana.com/news/250326/1/andy-uba-picks-gubernatorial-ticket-from-labor-par.html |work=Modern Ghana |title=Andy Uba Picks Gubernatorial Ticket From Labor Party, Makes Peace With Chris Uba |date=20 Nov 2009 |accessdate=2011-06-15}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.punchontheweb.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art200912054224117 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111002104003/http://www.punchontheweb.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art200912054224117 |dead-url=yes |archive-date=2 October 2011 |title=As Labour Party woos Andy Uba |author=John Ameh |date=5 Dec 2009 |work=The Punch |accessdate=2011-06-15 }} 5. ^{{cite web |url=http://allafrica.com/stories/200912100519.html |title=Anambra - Why We Fielded Andy Uba - Labour Party |work=Daily Trust |author=Abbas Jimoh |date=9 December 2009 |accessdate=2011-06-15}} 6. ^{{cite web |url = http://thenationonlineng.net/web2/articles/30751/1/Why-I-opted-for-Labour-Party-by-Andy-Uba/Page1.html |title = Why I opted for Labour Party, by Andy Uba |date = 2009-12-31 |work = The Nation (Nigeria) |accessdate = 2011-06-15 |deadurl = yes |archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20100101144339/http://thenationonlineng.net/web2/articles/30751/1/Why-I-opted-for-Labour-Party-by-Andy-Uba/Page1.html |archivedate = 2010-01-01 |df = }} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.pointblanknews.com/News/os4235.html |date=2010-11-28 |work=PointBlank News |title=Andy Uba eyes senate seat |accessdate=2011-06-15}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.okeyndibe.com/titles/2006-12-13-Fraud-Incorporated.pdf |title=Fraud Incorporated |date=13 December 2006 |author=Okey Ndibe |accessdate=2011-06-15 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20111003150248/http://www.okeyndibe.com/titles/2006-12-13-Fraud-Incorporated.pdf |archivedate=2011-10-03 |df= }} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://news2.onlinenigeria.com/news/general/96101-andy-ubas-fake-credentials-resurface-at-anambra-election-tribunal.html |title=Andy Uba's Fake Credentials Resurface At Anambra Election Tribunal |work=Online Nigeria |date=2011-05-23 |accessdate=2011-06-15 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110728122907/http://news2.onlinenigeria.com/news/general/96101-andy-ubas-fake-credentials-resurface-at-anambra-election-tribunal.html |archivedate=2011-07-28 |df= }} 10. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://allafrica.com/stories/201002010860.html?page=2 |title=Anambra Decides - the Contestants, Their Chances |work=Leadership (Abuja) |author=Stanley Nkwocha |date=30 January 2010 |accessdate=2011-06-15}} 11. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://www.ringforchange.org/more_details?id=36 |work=RingForChange |title=Chief Dr Andy Emmanuel Nnamdi Uba |accessdate=2011-06-15}} }}{{Nigerian Senators of the 7th National Assembly}}{{Nigerian Senators of the 8th National Assembly}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Uba, Emmanuel Nnamdi}} 7 : Members of the Senate (Nigeria)|Living people|1958 births|Anambra State|People's Democratic Party members of the Senate (Nigeria)|California State University alumni|Igbo politicians |
