Born in 1958, the former senator who was in the Senate between 2007 and 2015, was said to have died in a hospital in Abuja after a protracted illness.
Senator Ayogu Eze was a founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) but until his death, the former lawmaker was a member of the APC and one of the chieftains of the party in Enugu State.
Before being elected into the Senate in 2007, Senator Eze served the Chimaroke Nnamani-led Enugu State government as the Commissioner for Information, Culture and Tourism.
