With the passing on of Dr. Tunji Braithwaite on Easter Monday, Nigeria has lost one of its most colourful politicians, foremost nationalist and legal luminary, consistent and progressive politician, elder statesmen and patriot. And understandably, the demise of the 82-year-old legal icon at St. Nicholas Hospital, which was confirmed by Olumide, his eldest, has thrown the nation into mourning.
Since the news of the death broke yesterday, tributes have continued to pour in from eminent personalities across the nation. Among those who have reacted to the demise of the founder of the National Advance Party (NAP) are politicians, activists and elder statesmen and they include Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu, Chief Ken Nnamani, Governor Olusegun Mimiko, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, Prof. Pat Utomi, Balabe Nusa, Federick Fasuhun among others.
