Ajibade Owefoso, a Nigerian journalist and the Imo State correspondent for Trust TV, has tragically passed away in his sleep. His lifeless body was discovered on the morning of Saturday, September 7, in his Lagos apartment after neighbors, concerned by his unresponsiveness to several knocks, forced his door open.
Ajibade is survived by his wife and three children, who reside in Imo State. He had recently experienced another family loss, having just buried his father-in-law in Imo State. The event saw support from various associations, including the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Correspondents’ Chapter, who showed solidarity during the difficult time.
Reacting, the Chief Operating Officer of Trust TV, Ibrahim Shehu Adamu, described the late Ajibade as a dynamic and passionate reporter whose energy and dedication brought life to every story he covered
“His sudden passing is a profound loss to all of us at Trust TV, and his vibrant presence will be deeply missed. Ajibade’s journalistic excellence and engaging reporting style made him a valuable member of our team,” Adamu said.
“His stand-ups brought stories to life, and his absence leaves a void that cannot be filled. We mourn his untimely passing.”
In his condolence message, Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State described the deceased as a hardworking, committed, dutiful and God-fearing journalist who plied his trade responsibly, ensuring that he did not compromise on the ethics of the media profession he belonged to.
The governor extended his sincere condolences to the young family and aged mother at this challenging time in their lives.
