Death has struck again in the Nigerian media industry, where Mr. Femi Kehinde, a young, brilliant and dynamic journalist answered an untimely call.
Until his death, Mr. Kehinde was the Managing Editor of the African Examiner Online. He was also the publisher of the Prosperity Today Magazine and Total Politics newspaper.
He died Thursday, July 23, in a ghastly auto crash along Lagos-Ibadan expressway. The ill-fated vehicle in which he was traveling, family sources confirmed somersaulted repeatedly and later caught fire.
Mr. Sunday Fase, the Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of the African Examiner Online, has expressed shock over the sudden death of his colleague. In his reaction Saturday, Mr. Fase said he was “shattered” by Kehinde’s demise.
The late Osun-born journalist was survived by his wife and four children.
