Six years ago, Ifeanyi Okereke, a newspaper vendor, was shot dead in Abuja by a security aide attached to Femi Gbajabiamila in Central Business District Abuja. At the time of his death, his wife had just given birth to their child barely two weeks earlier.
A young family was shattered, a father was taken away, and a future was stolen.
Years later, many Nigerians still ask whether justice was ever truly served.
Like countless other cases, this tragedy appears to have been pushed aside, leaving the victim’s family to bear the pain alone while those connected to power continued their careers unhindered.
For many, Femi’s name has been associated with controversy for far too long. The memory of Ifeanyi Okereke should not be forgotten, nor should the cries of a widow and a child who lost a husband and father.
A nation cannot build a just future by burying painful truths and abandoning victims. The culture of impunity, where the powerful move on while ordinary citizens suffer in silence, is the very structure that must be dismantled if Nigeria is to become a country where justice truly matters./copied
