Senator Buruji Kashamu, who has been receiving treatment for Covid-19, is dead.
Feeelers from insiders suggested that the controversial politician died during his treatment at the First Cardiology hospital when his condition reportedly deteriorated.
GoldmyneTV reported that the senator, who represented Ogun East senatorial district between 2015 and 2019, few days after testing negative, was found to have underlying chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart and lung diseases and high blood pressure that were fast weakening his immune system.
The discovery affected his body’s ability to respond as quickly to treatment at the isolation centre; hence, the need for advanced treatment at a higher hospital.
He died today at First Cardiology Consultants, in Lagos.
We pray his family and loved ones the fortitude to bear this loss.
