A former Minister of Internal Affairs during the administration of military President Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, Gen. John Shagaya, has been reported dead.
TVC News reliably gathered that the former army officer died on Sunday in an auto crash while traveling from Lantang to Jos, Plateau State at the age of 75.
His corpse has been reportedly taken to the mortuary.
Until his death, Shagaya was chairman, Governing Board of National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies, Kuru in Jos; and his last public assignment was about two weeks ago in Abuja.
