Former
chairman of the Board of Trustees (BoT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP),
Chief Tony Anenih, lost one of his sons, Eugene, yesterday.
Eugene’s
death is the second in the Anenih family in three weeks.
On April
17, 2017, the senior Anenih’s first wife
and Eugene’s mother, Dame Patricia, died at the age of 74.
She was
regarded as the matriarch of the Anenih family and her remains are yet to be
interred.
Yesterday,
Eugene reportedly slumped and died of alleged heart attack while playing a game
of tennis at Ikoyi Club, in Lagos.
Reports
indicated that his friends administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on
him, but failed to revive him after which he was rushed to St Nicholas
Hospital, also in Lagos Island.
Eugene, it
was learnt, died before he got to the hospital.
Before his death, he was a stock broker and
the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Nova Finance and
Securities Limited.
He worked
previously at TRW Finance and Securities Limited and has been a director of
Thomas Wyatt Nigeria Plc since 2008.
