The Dokpesi family will release further details on the funeral arrangements of the media mogul.
Nigerian media mogul, Raymond Dokpesi, has died in Abuja, according to his family on Monday, May 29, 2023.
The founder of DAAR Communications, the parent company of Africa Independent Television (AIT), was 71 years old.
“He will be deeply missed by all who knew him,” his son, Raymond Dokpesi Jnr., said in a statement on Monday.

Before AIT launched in 1996, Dokpesi launched Raypower FM, Nigeria’s first privately-owned FM radio station in 1994.
