Nigerians have taken to social media to express their sadness at the passing of Dr Obadiah Mailafia who was an outspoken critic and firm believer in democracy

Below are some reactions:

@kingogie6969: We hope there is no foul play in his death. He exposed a lot about the killings in #Nigeria and those behind it. RIP

@bolajilateefok1: This is extremely sad, & it shouldn’t be now when his people need him the most. He has left an undying legacy.

@SavvyRinu: Rest In Peace sir

@ENIBOY: Many times when i needed a sound opposition voice to react to govt policy or statements, I would call either Obadiah Mailafia, Yinka Odumakin or Junaid Mohammed. All of them have died this year.

@EjioforBar: The sad news of the sudden demise of Dr Mailafia hit me with a great shock.I could not believe it until I made calls to close contacts who confirmed it true. Hmmmm, what is life but fleeting moment? Today we’re here, tomorrow we’re no more.

@DoctorEmto: Obadiah Mailafia is dead. He died at the National hospital, Abuja…Me: Just like that? What’s the cause of death please!!!

@FS_Yusuf_: An independent autopsy should be done on Dr. Mailafia Obadiah.

@AriyoAristotle: The death of Obadiah Mailafia is quite devastating and painful. Very sad. Rest in valour, the Titan of the minorities. We have lost a courageous man.

@pataki_ro: As we mourn the death of Dr. Obadiah Mailafia, let us remember his warnings. May his soul rest in peace

@seunonigbinde: The loss of Obadiah Mailafia is a really tough one on the civic space. May the Lord grant strength to his loved ones. My condolences to people of Middle Belt and to Nigerians at large.

@SKefason: Many of us young people from Southern Kaduna drew strength and courage from Dr Obadiah Mailafia, now he is gone forever. In the space of one week I lost a supportive mother in Dr @HauwaShekarau and now Dr Mailafia. Who is next???? God please heal my heart
