Ex-President Shehu Shagari is dead.
Shagari passed away at the National Hospital Abuja on Friday. He was 93 years old.
Mr Shagari was elected president in 1979 and led Nigeria between 1979 and 1983 on the platform of the defunct National Party of Nigeria (NPN).
He was removed from office via a military coup in December 1983.
The coup plotters eventually named then Major General Muhammadu Buhari as the Head of State.
The news was broken by the Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, on his Twitter handle.
