BREAKING: Cross River Loses Strong Voice In Assembly
Representative of Akpabuyo Constituency in the Cross River House of Assembly, Mrs. Elizabeth Ironbar, is dead.
She died in the early hours of Wednesday after a protracted illness according to family sources.
The second term lawmaker was elected under the platform of the People’s Democratic Party(PDP).
She was one of the eight Assembly members that refused to move to the All Progressives Congress(APC) with Governor Ben Ayade.
Late Ironbar will be remembered for insisting the Chief Judge of Cross River Justice Akon Ikpeme should be confirmed despite the popular notion that she is an indigene by marriage and not birth.
She became the second Assembly member to die in the current dispensation.
