BENIN CITY- THE family of the former Chief of
General Staff, Admiral Mike Akhigbe, Monday,
described as untrue, online reports that the former
number two man died in a London hospital.
Contrary to the reports of his alleged death, elder
brother of the Admiral, Chief Joseph Alemon
Akhigbe, said the news about his death was
shocking to the family because ‘’ it is not true and it
is really embarrassing to us’’.
According to him,‘’My brother is stabilizing in an
American hospital and not even London as
erroneously reported. As I speak to you now, the
report in my opinion is pure speculation, the paper
said he died in a London hospital but my brother is
in an American hospital stabilizing. The wife, son-
in-law and his daughter are with him. My
immediate younger brother in Abuja who spoke to
the wife in America confirmed to family members
that the Admiral is stabilizing; the news of his death
is totally untrue.
Also, younger brother of the Admiral, Mr Aselenmen
Akhigbe, declared that the report is untrue. He said
‘’ I spoke with him this early morning at about 5am,
that is why we are surprise with such an erroneous
report. It is not good for people to report the death
of persons when such is not the case’’.
