There is now mourning in Aso Rock as a valuable life has been lost in what has turned out to be an unfortunate turn of events.
A very close staffer attached to the first lady, Mr Mohammed Ovajimo, the personal photographer to Aisha Buhari, has just lost his life.
He died at the young age of 39.
He was described as an accomplished professional who was not just the first lady’s photographer, but also worked with the first lady’s NGO known as Future Assured.
Mr Ovajimo, who was an indigene of Kogi State, died on Wednesday after a brief illness.
His death’s exact cause is still unknown, but there is swirling speculation that he died of complications arising from COVID-19.
