Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has expressed shock over the assassination of Olajide Sowore, the immediate younger brother of Omoyele Sowore, convener of Revolution Now.
Atiku, in a tweet, said the murder of Olajide Sowore and other Nigerians, including the daily kidnappings taking place in the country, diminishes us all.
He said: “I just received news of the reported killing of Mr Olajide Sowore, a student of Igbinedion University and the immediate younger brother of human rights activist, @YeleSowore. His death, and indeed the killings and daily abductions of innocent citizens, saddens me.
“Every death diminishes our humanity. My sincere condolences to the Sowore family and his friends. May his soul rest in peace.”
