The remains of foremost journalist, author and national icon, Mr. Peter Pan Enahoro, will be buried in London today.
Enahoro died in the United Kingdom (UK) on April 24 this year at 88.
He became editor of Nigeria’s oldest newspaper, Daily Times, at the age of 23 and carved a niche for himself as a satirist, standing on the side of the people.
Widespread eulogies have trailed his demise.

President Bola Tinubu, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Labour Party (LP) presidential candidates, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, are among prominent Nigerians who eulogised Enahoro, describing him as a nationalist, astute journalist, trainer of young journalists and a nice man.
Publisher of Daily Times of Nigeria (DTN), Mr. Fidelis Anosike, said today’s interment will not end the life and times of Enahoro but elevate his legend globally.
DTN, he said, has embarked on activities to honour the late icon. The newspaper, which Enahoro led, will be 100 in three years’ time.
