It was
reported the minister and his son died instantly in the crash, while his wife
slipped into coma. News reaching us states that she eventually gave up the
ghost at Doka hospital, Kaduna. The tragic incident, which happened on Sunday
afternoon in Kaduna state, was initially confirmed by Hadi Sirika, the minister
of state for aviation, via Twitter.
Details of the accident are still sketchy.
Ocholi, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), hailed from Kogi state. He was an
active politician. In 2011, he contested the governorship election on the platform
of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC). His bid to repeat the same feat
under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2015, suffered a setback as the
late Abubakar Audu clinched the ticket of the ruling party. He graduated from
the University of Jos and was admitted to the bar in 1986.
Very unfortunate
