Frederick Fasehun Is Dead! OPC Founder Dies by akinblog: 10:54am On Dec 01, 2018


The founder of Odua Peoples Congress, Dr. Frederick Fasehun, has died.

Fasehun, it was learnt, died in the late hours of Friday at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja.

The octogenarian, it was learnt, was admitted at the Intensive Care Unit of the hospital on Tuesday where he remained until his demise.

Confirming his death to our correspondent on the telephone, Fasehun’s Spokesman, Mr. Adeoye, said the late OPC founder was confirmed dead after a brief illness.

“It is true, baba died last night at the ICU in LASUTH, Ikeja,” he said.

Fasehun was born in Ondo Town, Ondo State in 1938.

He was a medical doctor and hotel owner and was responsible for the recent revival of the Unity Party of Nigeria, a party formed by the late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo in the 1970s

He studied science at Blackburn College and furthered his education at Aberdeen University College of Medicine. He also studied at the Liverpool Postgraduate School after which he had a Fellowship at the Royal College of Surgeons, according to Wikipedia.

In 1976, he studied acupuncture in China under a joint World Health Organization and United Nations Development Scholarship Program.

In 1977, he set up an Acupuncture Unit at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital. He resigned in 1978 and immediately set up the Besthope Hospital and Acupuncture Centre in Lagos. The Acupuncture Centre once earned a reputation as Africa’s first for the Chinese medical practice.

The OPC is Yoruba-based organization formed to actualize the annulled mandate of Chief MKO Abiola, who won the presidential election of 12 June 1993 but was barred from office.

Fasehun was imprisoned for 19 months from December 1996 to June 1998 during the military rule of Sani Abacha.

if true! may his soul rest in peace!

BUT why is police arresting people with arms in other part of the country but allowed people to be imposing islamic law on people in sokoto and collecting tax? report says the men are from Niger Republic, is that not islamization?

https://www.nairaland.com/4877061/unknown-group-suspected-terrorists-armed

the group currently in control of Tangaza Local Government Area of Sokoto State, applying ‘strange laws’ and punishing defaulters.
According to reports, members of the group believed to be from Niger Republic are in possession of assorted weapons, preaching Islamic teachings, forcefully collecting alms (zakat) and flogging defaulters.

This is one of the true heros of our democracy that fought for our freedom. Others are
Chief Obafemi awolowo
Shehu Musa yar'adua
Chief Gani Fawehinmi
Fela Anikulapo Kuti
MKO Abiola

They're all imprisoned and never ran away or abandoned the race like the Coward in Israel.

True heros don't abandon the struggle, they stay and die for what they believe in.

RIP Dr Fasheun
