Dr Olaolu Mudashiru, son of a former Lagos Military Governor, Group Captain Gbolahan Mudashiru, died Sunday morning after he was knocked down by a motorist along the Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi, Lagos.

Dr Mudashiru, a surgeon and finance expert in his fifties, was a co-founder and Deputy Managing Director of VETIVA, one of Nigeria’s leading Capital Management firms.
