The cause of his death is yet to be ascertained as at the time of filing this report.

His last post on twitter was ; I don't want to be seen as a good Christian just because I carry d bible but would prefer for people to see Christ in me through my actions...

His friend and colleagues have taken to social media platforms to mourn the great loss. May his soul rest in peace.

Waooooo. He was the 'ace' sports journalist at Delta Broadcasting Service. I think he once had a stint with NFF. May God give his family the fortitude to bear the loss.

Followed him on Twitter especially during the Olympics. His insider updates were invaluable. I gather he was a pillar of sports journalism in Delta state prior to his gig with the Olympic team. Timi, God bless you!
