Former model now fashion consultant, socialite and fashionista, Chalya Shagaya is bereaved. Chalya who now practices photography lost her dearly beloved father, Senator John Shagaya, in a ghastly motor accident. The former minister was traveling along Langtang-Pankshin Road on his way to Jos when his vehicle, a Toyota land crusier SUV crashed into a tree around 2:25 p.m. on Sunday.

He suffered a head injury during the crash and subsequently died. His body has since been deposited at a morgue run by the Nigeria Air Force in Jos, the state capital.  A retired brigadier-general, he was travelling with his driver and orderly, a civil defence officer, when the accident occurred. The driver and the officer survived and are currently receiving treatment at the general hospital in Pankshin.

Shagaya who was recently appointed as the Chairman National Institute for Policy and Strategy Studies (NIPSS) by President Muhammadu Buhari, was a former Economic Community of West African States Monitoring Group, ECOMOG, Commander. He was a former Senator who represented Plateau South.
