Rear Admiral Ndubisi Kanu retired, a former military governor of Imo State in 1975 and governor of Lagos in 1976 is dead, reportedly from Coronavirus.
He was reported to have died this morning in a hospital.
The former Naval chief was reported to have been ill for a long
time but it is not clear yet what ailment killed him.
A close friend from Abia State confirmed his death today,
January 13, said that Kanu was in his seventies and celebrated his last
birthday in November 2020.
In 1975, Kanu was the only Igbo that was appointed into the
Supreme Military Council, SMC, before General Olusegun Obasanjo dissolved it
when he assumed office in 1976 as the head of state.
