More information has come to light regarding the death of George Obiozor, the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
A high-ranking Ohaneze leader confirmed Obiozor’s death to Obasanjonews24 on December 26th.
The chieftain, who did not want to be named, told our reporter that Obiozor died of a heart problem.
But he added that the highest Igbo body would hold off on announcing Obiozor’s passing until his family did.
“The man is dead, but it is not customary for us to make such a statement, even when we receive such knowledge.” Instead, we let the family members do so.
“He passed away on Monday from a cardiac condition. I’m not sure where he passed away, although he left for another country before coming back to Lagos.
The insider claimed, “I was called in the early hours of December 26 to say he died in the early hours.”
There have been rumours and stories circulating that Obiozor has died.
Despite these rumours, Obiozor’s family has not yet made a death announcement.
