The late reporter graduated from Benue State University in 2004 and joined Channels Television as a reporter in Abuja two years ago. He was later made the station’s correspondent in Kano. He was the winner of Channels Television’s 2011 Chairman’s award and was honoured at the station’s end of the year celebration.
Akogwu had only returned to Kano two days ago after spending some time in Lagos. So so so sad! May his soul rest in peace...amen.

May his soul rest in perfect peace. This is a real tragedy. The job can be really dangerous.
He was shot? By who? I hope it wasn't "friendly fire" like what happened to the innocent civilian who was killed by the incompetent Nigerian Police (force) when the Boko Haram suspect escaped. It's a real pity. May his soul rest in perfect peace and may God comfort his family.
Smh...Amen
We shall live through it. GEJ's recipe to Boko Haram problem. We are definitely living through it. All should get ready to say many more RIPs in the coming days. RIP, my bro.

http://pointblanknews.com/new/exclusive/3515-how-ringim-presented-fake-kabir-sokoto-to-police-minister.html
simple police procedure from time immemorial...every arrest by the police is recorded...with the arrestee holding a number, at least two pictures are taken, frontal and sideways...then finger prints are collected...did the nigeria police do this?...with bomb suspects, chemical tests are carried out on the hands and other exposed part of the body...dna is taken...but ignore the last two...Nigeria still takes pictures and fingerprints...well, info received states that, the police have presented a fake Kabiru Sokoto. The picture in your website is not that of Kabiru Sokoto! He is currently in Kano coordinating his boys! Why was the policeman Zakari Biu brought back into the Nigeria police by the present IGP long after he was removed by OBJ? We all know what is happening and cant be fooled!
RIP www.gideblog.com
RIP Eneche Akogwu. What a young life cut short. Oh Lord we need your help in this country. Grant his family as well as channels Tv the fortitude to bear the loss. Amen.

May His soul rest in perfect peace. O GOD pls strengthen his family n giv them d fortitude 2 bear d loss.
So sad RIP and to his family take heart
So sad, he should have been more security conscious but all that is irrelevant now. RIP
I have not stopped crying. I knew him personally and he was one person that did not deserve to die. His death is still a big shock. Gentle at heart and a really good friend. Why do the good ones always die???
Rest in Peace, Enenche.
I'll miss you.
May he RIP, i still maintain dat GEJ and boko haran are one
And hv dey deployed soldiers to dat state?
FAROUK SULEIMAN
It's sadden my heart. May his soul rest in peace.
To you LINDA, this you must know, they are not ISLAMIC militant. Call them boko haram militant. Islam do not condone militancy.
how will thay do that and get free.
to be a Nigerian CHRISTIANA AMANPOUR is not worth it. No life insurance, nothing. just one minute silence n they all move on.
so sad. May God accept ur soul n i strongly sympathize with ur family. Godbless ur soul.
This is crazy. Imagine being this man's parent, wife? Jeezz! Channels go compensate hs family?
www.nigeriantvshows.com
see hw God will punish GEJ? boko haram he has not tackled then its fuel subsidy he wants to tackle. anuofia!
I was so saddened to hear the news of his death! Just few days back, Monday precisely I was watching him reporting the protest in Kano, then I thought to myself that his job is really a big risky one as he wore bullet proof while reporters from other regions weren't and there you are, four days after, he' been shot dead. So sad! May his soul RIP!! And may God grant the family and Channels Tv the fortitude to bear this great loss and tragedy. My prayers is with you all.
ENECHE SAW THEM, GRACE (COLLEAGUE)CONFIRMED IT, THEY ARE NOT BOKOHARAM, THEY ARE POLITICAL THUGS THAT WAS Y THEY SHOT HIM #RIPENECHE
Too sad. May he RIP. Amen.
Nigerians!!!! this is very brothersome. When they increased the amount of fuel, the outrage had no competition. Now innocent citizens are being killed by Islamic militants and people are not even half as outraged as they were with the pockets being affected. This is sad. Greed...anyways this is horrible. Who are these animals? we need intelligence in Nigeria to help decode. Please O ye thieving policticians, can you please for once invest some of the money you rob Nigeria of everyday and invite American or even Russian intelligence to help you investigate these bastards. Nigeria can afford surveillance, you can pay people to get info, you can tighten security on States that are likely to have these cells. NIGERIAN POLITICIAND AND LAWMAKERS, CABALS, DECISION MAKERS, Please for once in your miserable, greedy, theiving lives, spend money to save the lives of Nigeria and its citizens. This is getting out of control. Why aren't people marching that Boko Haram should be brought to book? tHIS IS JUST TOO SAD
Boko Haram is evil. Save for mischief or ignorance no reasonable man will qualify or describe Boko Haram as Islamic or even agree with that description. Can any one of you, the mischief makers - media men or journalist, explain to us what exactly is islamic about boko haram, a group that kills muslims alike. And can you tell us anything islamic in the governance or life style of politicians who have been alleged to be sponsors of boko haram. I would have expected people like you to seek knowledge about Islam regardless of whatever your pastors could have told (misinformed) you about Islam. God punishment awaits mischief maker in any way.
But he was wearing a bullet proof vest wasn't he? Or where was he shot? In the thigh?
So sad... May he rest in peace, may God give his family comfort n d ability Ï„o handle this.
Terrible...
You know its a big deal when this is broadcast on the news here in the UK and there is a field correspondent reporting from Naija and someone else sitting in the news studio discussing this.When they are discussing the blast of the UN building, Xmas day and now Kano.
How this will affect them in the long run as the news caster says Al quaeeda is now sponsoring the young militants in Nigeria to fly over to afghanistan for training. They shdnt come and pour sand in some innocent people's gari and make it difficult for Nigerians back home to acquire visas to travel abroad o!!
Dis is d dis-advantage of journalism, shocked wen I heard, if sum I had tld me he wz gonna die dis week, I wz goin 2 deny it, I got 2 knw im durin d protest.*so sad*
Idoma, my fatherland weeps for you, Enenche!
Another of the few promising young Idoma boys of our generation gone again.
You died a brave man as only a few would have been able to show this kind of dedication to his/her job.
Rest on my brother. Owoicho(God) knows best.
@anonymous 12.50 am, your statement is kind of callous!
Rachie pls contact me on twitter @iheduruc or on my BlackBerry 312ad095, we need to discuss something.

This is really sad, may his soul rest in peace i do hope he knew God in his lifetime. as an aspiring journalists, i sometimes wonder if its all worth it but u've gotta do wat u gotta do.
Oh Lord....
Plz hav Mercy on Our Land....
(Father,,,, Cuz U will not Share Your Glory wit anybdy..... Plz Xpose all doz causin Confusion in our Land, Nigeria....Prayin)
Amen!
May His Soul Rest In Perfect Peace..... Amen!
I pray God will kill the members of this stupid boko haram, including their family members one by one.
I pray, the leader of this islamic sect will fall dead.
I pray, they will blow themselves up with their own bomb explosion.
The sadness/pain/tears they brought to my family and many others out there, they will never see peace in their life.
If they don't repent, they will all burn in hell, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, AMEN.
Its a pity......may his soul find rest!!!
