Omusolo, who majored in print at the Standard Media Group, was found dead on Thursday with his body having deep cuts on the head.

According to his colleague, the journalist was a calm man who hardly offended anyone and he had a perfect understanding in the Financial Markets.

"Having worked with him, he was very calm, hardly offended anyone, and was very approachable despite being a senior in the career.

"If you read the Financial Markets section (stocks, Forex, Unit Trusts) he's the one who did the compilation," the colleague stated.
