ABUAH, DIRECTOR OF INFORMATION, PASSES ON

by Our Reporter

Mr Justin Onuorah Abuah, Director of Information, State House, has passed on.

Born on January 29, 1959, Mr Abuah, fondly called O.J, by all who knew and
came in close contact with him, died on Sunday, August 14, in Abuja after
a brief illness.

The late Abuah had a long and rich career at the Presidency, where he
served seven past Nigerian leaders since 1986 when he joined the State
House media office from the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).

His many colleagues, friends and admirers will fondly remember him as the
man behind several presidential statements and speeches; and he
demonstrated a rare sense of calmness and candour in service.

A native of Asaba, Oshimili South Local Government Area, Delta State, O.J
is survived by his wife, Loretta and three children (Chinedum, Chike and
Amaechi).

President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a condolence message to the bereaved
family.

Burial arrangements will be announced later by the family.
