Organisers of the Nigeria Pitch Awards have expressed shock and deep sadness at the sudden and untimely passing of Ibidun Elizabeth Ituah-Ighodalo (Nee Ajayi), wife of Pastor Ituah Ighodalo and former Miss Lux.
Mrs Ituah-Ighodalo reportedly died in the early hours of Sunday at her hotel room in Port Harcourt, Rivers State where she had travelled to on a work-related trip.
Shina Philips, President of the Nigeria Pitch Awards, said in a statement that he was in deep shock over the wife of Pastor Ituah Ighodalo who is the Managing Partner of SIAO Partners-the accounting firm which coordinates the entire voting process of the Nigeria Pitch Awards.

“I am still in deep shock. I am a personal friend of the Pastor Ituah Ighodalo’s family and besides Pastor’s engagement with the Nigeria Pitch Awards, he has been my friend, my brother and a pastor to me,” Philips said. “
He has travelled with the Pitch Award crew to venues of our award ceremonies across Nigeria. Mrs Ighodalo through Pastor Ituah has offered to avail us the use of her event centre and services more than once but the award ceremony hasn’t been hosted in Lagos yet.”
