The Lagos State Police Command has launched an investigation into the death of Gihan Mbelu who was until his death, the chairman of the Victoria Garden City, VGC in the Lekki area of the state.
He was aged 42.
A financial adviser and venture capitalist, he was found unconscious in his C300 4Matic car around 10.10 am on Friday, April 26, 2024, around VGC and rushed to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH where he was confirmed dead by a doctor on duty.

“Concerned by the discovery, some of the people in the area, upon close observation of the vehicle, found Mbelu in it,” a source revealed.
While some people speculated that the 42-year-old man might be sleeping, some other persons, who were bent on ascertaining Mbelu’s true state, reportedly made frantic efforts to wake him up but it proved abortive.
