Laolu Mudashiru, the eldest son of former Military Governor of Lagos State, the late Air Commodore Gbolahan Mudashiru and his also-deceased wife, Foluke, is dead.
Laolu, an investment banker, was cycling with two other professional cyclists when a drunk driver rammed into their bicycles on Gerrard Road (Onikoyi end) and sped off, leaving them with very serious injuries.
Mudashiru and the two other cyclists who have not been identified, were rushed to the Lagoon Hospital on Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi, where he eventually died from injuries to the head, according to reliable sources.
A UNILAG-trained medical doctor with an MBA from the University of Reading in the United Kingdom, Laolu was a Co-Founder/ Deputy Managing Director of VETIVA, one of Nigeria’s leading Capital Management firms.
