Saheed Osupa said in his Instagram post that Sule Sax, born Abiodun Lasisi, would forever be remembered for his good works.
“This is hard. I am saddened! The memory we shared are numerous, but no amount of words can express my grief at this period!
“Rest in Peace, Sule Sax. You shall forever be remembered for all your good deeds.

Saheed raised the alarm, stating that he could not foot the bill alone. He begged for the support of Nigerians and asked the public to come to the aid of one of his trusted hands.
