Find here a touching story concerning a country that has failed her citizenry beyond human imagination. How can a society be this callous, you would ask! But, this is where we find ourselves and sadly so…
Olugbenga David Owolabi was buried 1st of October 2022 in America. He was a Nigerian who migrated to America in his 20s. He came back to invest in Nigeria in his 50s. He started a farm and a hotel in Ogbomoso. A few weeks after returning to Nigeria, he was kidnapped in his hotel together with a staff of his hotel Who was out of school because of ASUU strike.
The kidnappers demanded millions as ransom and he paid. But the kidnappers ended up killing him and his staff.
His family in USA blamed him for allowing his love for Nigeria to lead him to an early grave. His family refused to bury him in Nigeria. They flew his body back to America and buried him on Independence day as a reminder that Nigeria is a killer of those who love her.
Terrorism, insecurity and kidnapping has no tribe or religion….
As the general elections beckon, I urge you to v 8ote your conscience…. Campaign with your conscience…. Our nation has failed us.
