‘He was pierced through the heart’: How ex-ASUU president, Iyayi, died – Doctor

An insight has been given as to the circumstances surrounding the death of ex-ASUU president, Festus Iyayi after he was involved in an accident on Tuesday.

Dr. Paul Amodu of the Specialist Hospital in Lokoja, Kogi gave intricate details as to how the injuries sustained by Professor Iyayi led to his eventual death.

According to Dr. Amodu, after the crash between Prof. Iyayi’s car and another, the ex-ASUU boss was pierced through the heart leading to his death.

The Sun reports:

 Amodu said: “The accident occurred when the ASUU bus conveying Prof. Iyayi and one Dr. Ngozi Ilo was trying to dodge a pot hole on the highway when the rear vehicle in the governor’s convoy suddenly collided with them.
“The vehicle collided with the side which the professor was sitting and something pierced straight through his heart, and he strapped on the seat motionless with a copy of a national newspaper in his hand.
“Beside his seat was a pair of Novas, an anti-hypertensive drug which suggests that he might have
been hypertensive. However, the woman sitting in the front of the vehicle (Dr Ngozi Ilo) only had part of her right hand flesh slightly chopped off, no fracture in the hand as alleged.
“When she was rushed here, we later discovered she had a little cut in the leg and a fracture in the tipia bone (upper part of the leg), she was treated by a consultant, Dr Chizoba Osita Nwokese and had been discharged.
“I believe that what will be will be. Although he must have been hypertensive, but he died due to an object, which penetrated straight through his heart,” Dr. Amodu said.
Meanwhile, Iyayi’s corpse was claimed at the specialist hospital by his immediate younger brother, Peter Iyayi, who is a lecturer at the Federal University in Lokoja.
The younger Iyayi came in company of some ASUU officials including the branch chairman of Ambrose Alli University in Ekpoma, Edo State, who left with the body at about 12 noon yesterday
