The former senator and businessman, Buruji Kashamu, is dead.
Kashamu died Saturday at the First Cardiology Consultants Hospital in Lagos State.
The Ogun-East senator died in the same private facility where a former governor of Oyo State Abiola Ajimobi and President Muhammadu Buhari’s chief of staff Abba Kyari died.
It was learnt that Kashamu, who had diabetes and high blood pressure, was admitted at the hospital for over a week before passing away.
Kashamu, who was the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2019 election, was facing extradition to the United States for alleged drug trafficking before his death.
