CHAIRMAN, Ogun State Chapter of the Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ), Soji Amosu, is dead.

Amosu, a staff of the National Orientation Agency (NOA), died on Sunday.

Assistant Secretary of the NUJ, Ogun state chapter, Abiodun Taiwo, confirmed that Amosu is dead.

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

A graduate of Mass Communication, he was elected as the Chairman of the Ogun NUJ in 2019, at a time when he was completing a tenure as the Secretary of the council.

Though his election was dissolved by the National President of the NUJ, Chris Iziguzo, who said it was not in line with Article 5, Paragraph 10 of the union’s constitution, Amosu approached the National Industrial Court and the election was upheld in February 2021.
