Died on active duty

His parents sent him to Youth service and not to die on active duty

Channels is losing another reporter in a similar circumstance, they should protect their reporters covering conflicts with Kevlar vests and helmets

stagger:
Channels TV is an irresponsible station. How do you send a journalist to a combat zone to cover news without a ballistic vest? A Level II or Level IIIA would have protected him. One would have thought they would have learnt from the death of their correspondent in Kano in a bomb attack. Apparently they have not.

Well said even with ballistic vest, only experienced journalist covers such and not newbie. Just like I said, field experience matters a lot when it comes to journalism

May he rest in peace
God almighty grant fortitude to those left to remember him

You're right, and this is the same problem with almost every sector in this country, we just can't get basic things right. This was a very avoidable death.

Rip bro. Buhari failed you.

So worried for his country,people died for stubbornness and incompetence of a so called President and no 1 citizen of this nation who doesn't value the life of a citizen. God will comfort his family ans his love ones..God bless Nigeria,

this country sef...

Most unfortunate. RIP to the dead.

We all need to start subscribing to the travel section of nairaland.

A sad day for Nigerian journalism

Are u selling?

Am now tired of this country.....its time to move out..... If I no get money, I go trek

Blitz4real:
Rip to all those we lost today to the Shiites. Is one of those things about life,one thing must kill a man

You mean: those that we lost to the Police of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Even the sound of Gun kills here.. While Abroad 15 gunshots is nothing, unless u die at the spot.. Our Doctors are not tying at all...

Are u selling?

ahhh.. nooo

When I heard the news tonight he had given up the ghost, I was so much angry with the unprofessionalism of Channels TV. Till now, I can't fathom how emotional I'm. It was avoidable. No matter how zealous the guy was, he shouldn't have been asked to go cover the deadly Shiites/Police protest. What were the senior correspondents doing? Very unfortunate for the young man.

Continue to RIP,Precious

Imagine say shiite members na ipob �� By now buhari for Don bomb all the south eastern States.Tonda faya all the enemies of Igbo nation.

Nigeria is cursed. It started from Niger delta Millitants, Fulani, Shites, Bokoharam, Kidnappers,

Too bad a news for a serving Corps member.
Dying for Nigeria is just a careless one.

Tufiakwa!.

Not to defend Channels but
Foreign journalists also die even when fully kitted
The job is hazardous
Reason am now even a DCP died
It's sad
Many people laugh at NTA journalists that they report at the scene after 4 days, but here's a station that wants to up their game and take back their trophy from TVC. Sadly it has cost the life of a government pikin all Corps members are government pikins.
May he rest well oh
I wonder if the first aid and hospital also acted promptly
