Victoria, wife of Nigeria’s first Head of State, Major General J. T. U. Aguiyi-Ironsi, is dead.

Victoria passed away in the early hours of Monday. She would have clocked 98 on November 21, 2021.

Johnson Thomas Umunnakwe Aguiyi-Ironsi seized power during a national chaos following the January 15, 1966 military coup.

He became the Supreme Commander of the National Military Government and was killed on July 29, 1966 during a counter coup.

Victoria, who never re-married, died two weeks after the demise of Hadiza Shagari.

The wife of former President Shehu Shagari gave up the ghost after battling with COVID-19 complications.
