Minister of State, Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo has assured that he and other patriotic Nigerians would pressurise law-enforcement agents to get the killers of Olajide Sowore arrested.
In a message titled “Commiseration on the reported killing of your brother”, to Omoyele Sowore, the minister said: “Myself and other compatriots would be pressurising the law-enforcement agents to track down these killers without delay and bring them to justice.
“This, and many others around the country, must be checkmated with all arsenals at our disposal.”
Olajide Sowore was killed by reported herdsmen/kidnappers on his way from Igbinedion University in Edo State where he was studying Pharmacy.
Keyamo expressed sadness over what he described as the “senseless killing” of Sowore’s younger brother.
“It is quite sad and regrettable that such a young man would be cut down in his prime by criminal elements,” the Senior Advocate lamented.
He urged Sowore “to take heart and remain committed to helping the nation find a lasting solution to some of these numerous challenges.”
