Chairman of Sosoliso Airline, Chief Victor Ikwuemesi, has died of Coronavirus in London.
This was confirmed by family sources and associates, who said the business mogul died on Monday, a few days after he was diagnosed with the dreaded disease.
A source close to the family said that the Chairman of the defunct airline was admitted into an unnamed London hospital after a brief illness.
He later tested positive for COVID-19 in the result that was released on Tuesday.
He was put in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) on oxygen since he arrived in the London hospital, the Nation reports.
“But, when the oxygen was removed for him to eat he couldn’t breathe on his own.
“So they put him on a ventilator and he died shortly after,” the source disclosed.
The defunct Sosoliso airline was based in Enugu.
