News coming in has it that Ernest Shonekan, former Head of an Interim National Government in Nigeria, is dead.
Shonekan died on Tuesday in Lagos at the age of 85.
He was appointed interim head of the country after ex-Military President Ibrahim Babangida stepped down on August 26, 1993.
Shonekan’s administration only lasted three months as Sani Abacha forcefully took power through a coup.
