THE only surviving son of
the late Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Barrister Aaron Ocholi,
has promised to retain all the legacies of his father.
Aaron Ocholi who is 25
years, according to family sources, was saved from following his father to
attend the Church service in Kaduna due to an ankle injury he sustained while
training on a football pitch.
He was on crutches at the time the father and
some members of the family embarked on the fatal trip.
Also yesterday, Deputy Governor of Yobe State,
Abubakar Ali, was involved in an auto accident along the Kaduna-Kano expressway
but escaped unhurt.
Already, the Ocholi family house at 4 Daggash
Street, Kado Estate, Abuja, was a beehive of activities, yesterday, as
ministers, lawmakers and heads of agencies trooped to the residence to
commiserate with the family.
This resulted in a traffic
gridlock on all the roads leading to the family house at Kado.
Speaking to the body of
Senior Advocates of Nigeria, SANs, that visited the house, Aaron said he would
not tamper with the legacy of his father and will never sell his books and law
firm, assuring the SANs that with them, he would not derail.

yesterday, that 10 persons were in the two SUVs, a Prado and a Lexus, involved
