Shocks over LIRS ex-director Disu’s death after birthday

The sudden death in Lagos of Olanike Disu, a tax expert and a
former director at the Lagos Internal Revenue Service continues to
provoke consternation in social media.

The beautiful mother of two, died 4 September, barely 24 hours
after celebrating her birthday on 3 September. Her husband
reportedly died just weeks before.

“What’s happening?”, says a post on Facebook. “We want to ask..
But unquestionable God, you understand all things”.

“Beautiful lady. Maybe the pain was too much for her. Hope the
children have loving people to look after them,” says another.

A man who attended the birthday on Sunday was especially gutted
by her sudden departure. He wrote on Facebook: “If death were to
take census of who is next, I will probably think you won’t find
space in the next 40 years but alas a day after your birthday
Monday 4th September, you bade us final farewell.

“I still teased you on Sunday that I had no birthday gift for
you but you should go to any Coscharis Motors and pick the latest
BMW, that you should tell them I will pay in future. I said you
deserve even more. My pretty Mrs Olanike Disu, an amiable friend
and a trustworthy Aunty. Sleep on the beloved!!!”

According to a report by TVC, she died in mysterious
circumstances at a private hospital after complaining that she was
not feeling too well.

Confirming her death, the members of Council, Management and
Secretariat of the Chartered Institute of Taxation Of Nigeria
regrets issued a statement announcing the:“ unfortunate demise of a
member of the Executive Committee of Council, Mrs Olanike Disu,
FCTI which occurred today, September 4, 2017. She was the current
Chairman of the 2018 Annual Tax Committee (ATC). She was also an
Assistant Director with the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS)
until her death. We pray that God will comfort her family and the
CITN family, and grant them the fortitude to bear the irreparable
loss”.

Disu was an alumnae of Oklahoma City University where she bagged
a BA in Mass Communications in 1986, according to her LinkedIn
profile.
