According to
Noo, his brother had Coronavirus, combined with underlying health conditions,
on Monday, which led to his death.
Menegian, son
of late activist, Ken Saro-Wiwa has died of Coronavirus in the United Kingdom.
This was
disclosed by his sister, Noo Saro-Wiwa on her Facebook Page on Thursday.
“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 onward.
“I took this
photo of him a few months ago before he was hospitalised. We were singing
Hysteria by Def Leppard, a song we both love. Although the side-effects of
medication altered his athletic physique, this photo still captures Gian’s
essence: 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,” she said.
Menegian
Saro-Wiwa was born in 1970.
