A former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Dr. Olu Onagoruwa, is dead.

Onagoruwa, a human rights activist, died in the early hours of Friday at the age of 80.

He was appointed the AGF by the late Head of State, Gen. Sani Abacha, in November 1993.

He, however, quit the post few months later due to agreements with then military government.
