He said:
"First and foremost, I want to thank God Almighty for His guidance without which none of this would have been possible. Undoubtedly, it has been a long journey but our loving God in his infinite mercy and grace took me by the hand and led me thus far in my academic pursuit.
"My transition from the hallowed Senate chamber to sitting in the same classroom with effervescent youths that happen to fall within the same age bracket with my daughter was a very challenging and startling journey."
Ubah said that when he decided to study law, he was prepared to learn, explore and challenge himself to leave his comfort zone and live a new reality.

The senator said that every little encounter and experience he gained so far at the university has been enriching, adding that it would remain within his memories for life.

"My learning experience has truly been a fascinating and unforgettable one and I have so many people to thank for that. At this juncture, I would like to congratulate my fellow graduands including Chief Osita Chidoka, Dr. Adaora Umeoji, Senator Dino Melaye and others for successfully obtaining their degrees. Thank you all for sharing in this amazing journey with me, I sincerely wish you all the very best in your future endeavours."
