LAGOS SEPTEMBER 24TH (URHOBOTODAY)-Urhobo born billionaire,  industrialist and chairman of the Ibru Organisation, Olorogun Oscar  has died at the age of 67.

His family revealed that he passed away after a brief illness. No further details were provided regarding the circumstances of his death.

A central figure in Nigeria’s corporate landscape, Ibru was the most prominent heirs of the Ibru dynasty. He played a pivotal role in sustaining and expanding the vast family conglomerate established by his late father, Olorogun Michael Ibru, with key interests spanning shipping, oil and gas, real estate, and commerce.

Regarded as both a visionary businessman and custodian of his family’s legacy, Oscar Ibru carried forward the entrepreneurial spirit that made the Ibru Organisation one of Nigeria’s most recognisable corporate brands.
