Olajide Sowore, younger brother to the founder of Sahara reporters, Omoyele Sowore, has been laid back to rest at his hometown of Kiribo in Ese-Odo Local Government Area of Ondo state.
Olajide was shot and killed by suspected herdsmen/kidnappers near Okada in Edo state on his way from Igbinedion University, where he was studying Pharmacy.
Omoyele Sowore announcing the passing of his brother, payed tributes to his brother on his social media page.
Part of the tribute reads;
Rest In Power, “Dr. Mamiye!”
This act in itself will not delay their day of justice.
I traveled widely with you and our father as a little kid. You were the most loved robust kid I ever first knew. You, Mr. magnet had no enemy!
You, Mr. Sunshine Foundation who made everyone happy.
You, the boy who snuck out his older ones to parties, taking all the blames when our disciplinarian father found out.
You, the guy who was an out-of-the-box thinker who decided school wasn’t for you and created your own genre of music and then turned around to go to school after you almost turned 50!
You lived your life so that everyone could be alright but now assassinated by everything that’s not alright!
Saddest day yet!
