Menegian , one the children of the late Ogoni Environmental Activist Ken Saro-Wiwa has died of Covid 19 disease at a London Hospital.
In a post on social media by Noo, sister to the deceased said Menegian passed on Monday .
She said, “We said goodbye to my brother, Gian, on Monday. He had Covid-19 combined with underlying health conditions. Gian was the smartest and most talented out of all of us: a champion sprinter at school, a poet, an artist, budding engineer, a self-taught guitarist and pianist. But mental health issues limited his life from age 16 onwards.
I took this photo of him a few months ago before he was hospitalised. “
“A kind and beautiful soul, always wanting the best for his family, always praying for our future success while being eternally optimistic about his own. And, of course, always loving his music. He leaves a wonderful son, Louis. “
He was aged 50.
