A Hot Debate and
Controversy is now following the tails of The Guardian Newspapers as facts available
to Paedia Express Multimedia is linking them to the murder of human rights
lawyer, Late Barrister Kunle Fadipe.
In an exclusive investigation by Paedia Express Multimedia
in Lagos, Nigeria, analysts are of the opinion that except a concerted effort
is made the big names involve will walk away free at the end of the day.
It was discovered exclusively that apart from a reporter
that was detailed to report the event and two officials of the company ,signing
of the condolence register ,officials of The Guardian Newspapers comprising of the
Publisher ,Chief Operations officer , Chief Executive officer, Management
Consultant ,Editor-In- Chief ,Editor, Board members among others did not deem it vital to attend
the event thus throwing a lot of questions and speculations into air.
Late Barrister Olakunle Alexander Fadipe was an Editorial
Board member of The Guardian Newspapers, the highest decision making body of
the company before his untimely demise on the 3rd of July,2014.
About 13 different opinions sampled over whether the issue
of death should be handled with levity by the top echelon of an organization returned
a guilty verdict on the feudal lords of Rutam House in Lagos.
According to an impeccable source, even though some lesser
known mortals within the firm came for the burial and wake keeping but considering that Barrister Fadipe was
member of the Editorial Board ,the highest decision making organ of the company
should have been enough reason for The Guardian
Newspapers to show up as the chief mourner of the event.
Another source speaks:”it shows that they do not have any
form of respect for the dead ,otherwise they should have stormed his burial en
mass or did they kill him”
Paedia Express Multimedia also leant that it was wrong for
the late legal practitioner not to have looked for police protection after having a history of threats on his life previously
thus fuelling speculations that something was wrong somewhere.
Once upon a time, Comrade Lawal Balogun of the Committee for
Defense on Human Rights in Ifako –ijaiye had introduced this reporter to the
top echelon of the human rights community as he sought to take a legal stand on
The Guardian Newspapers ,The Comet Newspapers ,The Nation Newspapers over the forgery of his intellectual rights and
property by senior editors in the three
different media firms.
Barrister Kunle Fadipe was brought into the picture by
CDHR officials though he was not
actually given the case to handle but was fully briefed by this reporter on the
matter.
Sometimes in 2012,,the late lawyer told this reporter during
a press interview session in his private residence that he was now an Editorial
Board Member of The Guardian Newspapers thus igniting the believe that the latter
was compensated for giving the dubious elements in the media a privileged
information regarding an enemy.
In 2014,this reporter authored a series of stinging reports and investigations in which
Barrister Fadipe was been questioned publicly on why he had to accept a job
from a criminally minded firm even when he knew.
Less than four months after this, Barrister Olakunle Fadipe
was killed in his Lagos home by an assailant who has not revealed the identity
of the contractor as at press time.
A month before this episode, a certain Assistant Superintendent
of Police ,[ASP],Kassim Osama of the notorious Special Anti- Robbery Squad hit
squad of the Nigerian Police lied to this reporter of having some information
for him but this was discovered to be a hoax after he had collected his
personal details excluding residential address.
The Policeman later filed to be this reporter’s pal on Face
book but this was rejected on account of his lacking in transparency.
During the signing of the condolence register a lot of big
wigs in the Nigerian society were at the Fadipe’s Lagos residence.
Big crook and Editor-In-Chief of The Guardian Newspapers , Mr
Debo Adeshina who signed the register at
number 342 extolled the virtues of the
late lawyer.
His words:”Kunle was a perfect gentleman .a brilliant lawyer
with a huge promise, he dug a wall of knowledge for himself and his depth was
unmistakable”
“a great friend who was once forever available for his
friends ,wow, what a loss, his commitment to his job or whatever he did was
total “
“a life of integrity has been taken ,he will be sorely
missed, adieu”
Mourners like Lady Maiden Ibru signed in at number
57,Professor Wale Omole signed in at number 59,Sylvester Odion Akhaine at
number 53 while Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola in an unmistakable red pen
mourned his departed colleague.
The left handed lawyer turned politician speaks:”rest in
peace noble and learned colleague ,you ran a good race and painful as the end
was you work and service to the community is valued and appreciated”
It took this reporter at least 30 minutes to go through the
condolence register with at least 422 persons signing in as at the morning of the day of the wake keeping in Lagos.
The casket bearing the remains of the late lawyer had
arrived at his chambers opposite the Ifako –Ijaiye General Hospital to the
waiting hands of a delegation of about 18 highly respected members of the
Nigerian Bar Association while lying in
state en route his final journey.
Paedia Express Multimedia saw exclusively how lawyers
cladded in all black wept openly at the sight of the deceased lying clod dead.
Barrister Aworopo Awoyele and Barrister Patrick Arasanmi led
other lawyers as they prayed for the repose of the soul of the departed and for
the family to bear the irreparable loss.
Barrister Arasanmi struck a chord when he referred to the centuries
old betrayal of his friend, Julius Caesar by Brutus as the latter joined rebels
to stab the former and a great Roman General to death in the Senate in ancient
Rome.
He recalled that perhaps if Brutus was not involved in the
killing may be the Roman General will not even have died of shock and prayed that
all those involved in the killing will be apprehended and dealt with in line
with the dictates of the Nigerian law.
Paedia Express Multimedia noticed deep stitches around the
neck region of Barrister Olakunle Fadipe while lying in state , this thus show
the extent to which the assassin went just to make sure he killed his target.
Mrs Kemi Fadipe was a pitiful sight to behold as she wept
into the depth of her soul over the death of her husband of around 25 years
upon seeing his corpse lying in state in front of the house at highbrow Harmony
Estate.
She agonized in Yoruba language:”oroburuku leleyi”,meaning this death is very painful.
She kept wailing and rolling on the sofa in the living room
and almost hitting the ground in the process as numerous mourners tried in vain
to pacify her to no avail hence she was relocated to her room albeit
temporarily before the actual wake keeping service was conducted.
A source speaks:”kunle
Fadipe’s mother was not told of the
demise of her son but when people kept going to greet her in droves ,.she
started to suspect that something was wrong
and she was forced to ask and then the cat was let out of the bag”
“Normally Kunle and the wife goes to his 87 years old mother to eat lunch on the way from Church every Sunday
but on this particular Sunday she did not see the couple”
“She was told a big lie, that Kunle Fadipe had an accident
and was seriously injured and had been flown abroad for further treatment “
“It was when she did
not hear anything about his improvement that she knew that they were lying to
her”
During the burial proper in Ile-Ife in Parakin Estate ,Osun
State ,it was a tug of war separating the immediate family and the casket as the
wife of the deceased ,Mrs Kemi Fadipe and children wept very bitterly at the painful
separation from there father, husband and bread winner.
The casket was lowered into the grave some minutes to 2 in the
afternoon local time amidst light rains or showers from heaven.
The public address system however recognized the presence of
Mr Kunle Sanyaolu, Sylvester Akhaine and another official from The Guardian Newspapers
towards the tail end of the event.
