Ever since a
daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, was murdered in cold
blood by suspected herdsmen on the Ondo-Ore road, the Akure home of the
nonagenarian has been a Mecca of sort for genuine mourners and pretenders who
only want to get photo ops to advertise their feigned compassion.

Understandably, it is not unexpected that
lawmakers, governors and the presidency have taken turns to touch Akure soil in
order to visit the bereaved because of the political connection of
the victim – Mrs Funke Olakunrin. On July 12, 2019, Olakunrin joined the
burgeoning figure of Nigerians dispatched to early graves by the
bloodthirsty fiends on rampage across Nigeria who now seem unstoppable as
they have turned vast swathes of the Nigerian space to killing fields, leaving
citizens in perpetual fear.
