Femi Odekunle, a member of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC) and Nigeria’s first professor of criminology has died from Coronavirus complications.
The Cable reported that Odekunle died at the COVID-19 isolation center in Gwagalada, Abuja on Tuesday evening.
This is following the Chairman of the presidential task force on COVID-19 and secretary to the government of the federation, Boss Mustapha said on Tuesday December 29;
“A good friend of this government just passed on at 6:30pm”.
It's not clear if Mustapha was referring to Odekunle or another person, but he said discussions were ongoing to help the deceased hours before news of his death broke.
