Holding a Bachelor's degree in political and administrative sciences from the Saint Joseph University of Beirut, Azzi has published four books on Lebanese and Middle Eastern history and geopolitics.

Sejaan Azzi's passing leaves a void in Lebanon's political and media spheres. His contributions and commitment to public service and journalism will be remembered and cherished by his colleagues, listeners, and readers alike.
