Minister of State, Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, SAN, has reacted to the murder of the immediate younger brother of Omoyele Sowore, Olajide Sowore.
The activist had on Saturday lamented that his brother was killed “by reported herdsmen/kidnappers on his way from Igbinedion University in Edo State where he was studying Pharmacy.”
The Police had followed up with a confirmation of the development.
Keyamo, in a reaction, contained in a statement entitled: “Commiseration on the reported killing of your brother”, expressed sadness over what he described as the “senseless killing”.
According to him: “It is quite sad and regrettable that such a young man would be cut down in his prime by criminal elements.”
Keyamo assured that he and other patriotic Nigerians would pressurise law-enforcement agents to get the killers arrested.
“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,” he added.
He urged Sowore “to take heart and remain committed to helping the nation find a lasting solution to some of these numerous challenges.”
