For reasons yet unknown, THISDAY Foreign and Diplomatic Editor, Mr. Paul Ohia, was yesterday found
dead in his official car, a white Kia Optima along
Marine Road, Apapa, Lagos.


According to eyewitness reports, the deceased had
parked his car for several hours by the side of the
road, which aroused the suspicion of passersby,
prompting them to move closer to check on him.

The eyewitnesses said the deceased had reclined the
driver’s seat and lay on it as if he was sleeping; until
they opened the car doors to find out that he was
motionless and lifeless. The sympathisers who noticed the THISDAY sticker on
the windshield of the car, called THISDAY office,
informing of the tragic incident. THISDAY management
in turn called the police from Area B Command, who
arrived the spot to meet THISDAY Editors – Messrs
Collins Edomaruse and Olawale Olaleye. They moved the body to Lagoon Hospital in Apapa where he was
confirmed dead.

Although, the hospital said an autopsy would
determine the actual cause of death, the medical
doctor on duty said the deceased might have died of
cardiac arrest.
Until his death, Ohia, was a husband and a father of
two boys, was a core humanist who believed in justice and equality.


He took life so simple that he believed acquiring
property or pursuing wealth is a sheer waste of time.
