Young Nigerian who makes shoes for Osinbajo dies after expressing frustration with his football club

A young Nigerian shoemaker, Omale Ojima popularly known as OJ Best, has died.

It would be recalled that the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, some time ago invited him to Aso Rock presidential villa and purchased shoes from him.

Before then, OJBest had requested via a tweet to present a gift of his own made footwear to the VP.

It was gathered that the professional shoemaker went to bed on Saturday, February 26 and did not wake again.

He was rushed to Kubwa General hospital Abuja where he was rumoured to have died.

However, as friends took to social media to mourn him, his sister Comr Sofred Paul, who was at the hospital at the time, announced that he was still breathing, though unconscious. She called for prayer for him.

The same sister later announced his death, adding that his body had been taken into the mortuary.
