Ogun NUJ Chairman, Amosu Is Dead

Soji Amosu, the Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) in Ogun State, has died.

On Sunday, Amosu, a National Orientation Agency (NOA) employee, died.

The NUJ’s Assistant Secretary in Ogun State, Abiodun Taiwo, confirmed the tragic death to DAILY POST.

Amosu died after a brief illness, according to Taiwo, who expressed shock over what he called “an irreparable loss.”

Amosu was born on June 22, 1968, in Oke-Ore, Yewa South Local Government Area, Ogun State.

In 2019, the Mass Communication graduate was chosen Chairman of the Ogun NUJ, while also serving as the council’s Secretary.

Despite the fact that his election was dissolved by the NUJ’s National President, Chris Iziguzo, who claimed it was in violation of Article 5, paragraph 10 of the union’s constitution, Amosu took his case to the National Industrial Court, which upheld the election in February 2021.

Soji Amosu leaves behind a wife and children.
