The Publisher/ Vice Chairman of the African Newspapers of Nigeria (ANN) Plc, Publishers of the Tribune titles, Chief Oluwole Awolowo is dead. He was 70 years old.
Chief Awolowo died at 7.40 p.m. Nigerian time, on Wednesday, at Wellington Hospital, St Johnswood, London, following complications arising from a car crash that occurred on September 30, 2006.
He had been in and out of hospital, home and abroad, since he was involved in the ghastly accident seven years ago on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.
Despite his health challenges following the accident, Chief Awolowo devoted his life to the service of God and was deeply involved in evangelical activities. In the past four years, he authored a christian column, OBA’S LECTERN, in the Sunday Tribune.
May his soul rest in peace.
