Andrew died at the National Assembly Clinic in Abuja on Tuesday.

He was a guest of the Public Account Committee of the House of Representatives where he appeared for questioning on Tuesday in continuation of the ongoing probe of revenue-generating agencies and parastatals of government.

While addressing the committee on remittance of levies into designated government accounts, Andrew suddenly paused and said “Sir, I need to take water.”

The Chairman of the Committee, Bamidele Salam, responded, “You need to take water, sir? Yes, go ahead! Or if you need tea… Do you need tea?”

The customs boss repeated, “I may need to take water,” and then collapsed.

The House later announced his death in a statement signed later by the spokesman for the House, Akin Rotimi.
