Human rights lawyer and social commentator, Barrister Kunle Fadipe (pictured above) was last night July 3rd murdered
at his residence at Harmony Estate near Karaole Estate,
College Road in Ifako Ijaiye, Lagos.
According to reports, the estate where the late barrister lived was plunged into total darkness after power outage and the lawyer asked his son to go and turn on the generator. As
his son made his way to the generator, a man armed with a knife
accosted him and ordered him to take him to his father. As soon as the
man got to Mr Fadipe, he stabbed him in the neck and back. His daughter
who was at home immediately ran out of the house and called for help.
Two security officials attached to the estate immediately ran there and
were able to overpower the murderer. Continue..
The motive for the murder is still
uncertain however the police has taken the killer into custody with a
promise that the incident will be thoroughly investigated.
It was a assassination, pure and simple! Find out whose toes he stepped on and you might just find motives!
ReplyDeleteRIP Mr Fadipe...
DeleteTHE TINUBU LIST – UNEDITED
1. 4, Oyinkan Abayomi (formerly Queens) Drive, Ikoyi: A 5-bedroom detached house on one acre of land which was originally the Lagos State Governor’s guest house since 1979, but which now belongs to Tinubu. The certificate of occupancy of the property valued at N450 million was signed and released to him by Fashola in 2007 shortly after he assumed office.
2. Tinubu’s residence at 26 Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi was initially falsely presented as Oando Plc Guest House. Later, he purportedly bought it from Oando, and used public funds to rebuild and renovate it. The Lagos State Government bought the property and paid an undisclosed sum to him and thereafter gave the property back to him under the bogus Pension Bill he signed to law shortly before he left office in 2007. The property is worth over N600 million.
3. The annex of the Lagos State Guest House in Asokoro, Abuja was bought by the State Government in 2006 for N450 million, purportedly to protect the main house from security breach. Shortly after Tinubu left office, the property was transferred to him under the pension plan he signed into law before leaving office.
4. The 250-hectare land valued at about N35billion and strategically located at the Ajah junction on Lekki Road was initially meant for a General Hospital for the people of Eti-Osa Local Government but was stolen by Tinubu and handed over to Trojan Estate Ltd – a company owned by Deji and Wale Tinubu – to develop as Royal Garden Housing Estate at the expense of the taxpayers of Lagos.
5. The 1,000 hectares of land valued at about N75billion located at Lakowe near Abijo at Ibeju-Lekki Local Government and given to Lekki Concession Company (LCC) which is partly- owned by Tinubu and Fashola and being developed as golf course and housing estate by Assets and Resource Management Ltd (ARM) as ADIVA project.
6. The prime land of 157 hectares with 2.5km of Atlantic beachfront valued at about N10billion and stolen by Tinubu from the c

ReplyDeleteLinda, I commend you greatly for always giving back to your readers. However, it would be great if you can come up with a charity organisation on reaching the wider community that's if you have not already done that or you don't have it in the pipeline. Maybe sponsoring somer underprevilledged children back to school.
I pray God will continue to bless you. It will be great to leave your name on the sand of time.
Above all, all you have is from the Lord, always remember that.
The heart of man is truelly wicked. ..How do they even get to sleep@ night? This is soooo sad. God rest his soul

ReplyDelete1week b4 that, armed robbers have bn attacking us and that's how I lost my car 1st of june! A golf 3LSR 916 CG
Just dis morning, @ 2am , a man was shouting ole! Ole! Help! Help! And since I had d fone numbers of the policemen stil helping me @ state ciD abeokuta , I called...unfortunately, again, the robbers left b4 the police men came ..I saw the robbers and again, they took away a honda Civic (I tink, cos I couldn't see d vehicle well since there wasn't light)..
Pls am using this medium †̥̥Ơ̴̴̴͡ please appeal †̥̥Ơ̴̴̴͡ the security operatives †̥̥Ơ̴̴̴͡ come †̥̥Ơ̴̴̴͡ our Aid ..we are now the target of armed robbers pls ...
Ajuwon/akute/ lambe environs....
chai. dere is God oo. Why resort to killing instead of dialogue. Assassins shouldn't be killing innocent citizens but should target Boko Haram, Corrupt officials,etc. Killing a human right activist is a great loss to us coz he represents our interest in the society. RIP and may God give the family fortitude to bear the irreparable loss.

ReplyDeletemay his soul RIP..like i commented earlier,d country has no law and order...
ReplyDeleteR.I.P. He was about exposing some one.
ReplyDeleteA society that abhors truth.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I hope the police will interview the guy ASAP, before they get to him, which I think will happen. They need to get him on tap/video as he confesses who sent him. I feel like I know how this will end. They man will most likely die under police custody. They will sweep it under the rug like so many other cases.
ReplyDelete**There, I said it.**
I received the death of kunle Fadipe with great shock. I met kunle Fadipe when he was in the chambers of the late sage T O S Benson San, he was the head of chambers and he was unassuming ,and a detailed attorney ,from there he was appointed to the human rights commission .it is a painful loss and i hope his death will be properly investigated .May his soul rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteSo sad,rip.
