Advertising Guru, Sesan Ogunro, Murdered In Lagos by Nobody: 10:53pm On Dec 23, 2013
LAGOS — Marketing communications guru, Mr. Sesan
Ogunro, has been shot dead.Ogunro,Managing Director,
Eminent Communications, was shot Sunday night at
Alausa Central Business District, Lagos, by unknown
gunmen in the presence of his wife and children.

According to reports, Ogunro was returning from a
special Christmas service programme which he chaired
when the gunmen stopped his car and demanded for the
keys.
Though he didn’t resist their order, yet one of the
assailants shot him. He died few minutes later before
help could come. He was in his late 50s.
Senator Babafemi Ojudu, a friend of the deceased,
confirmed the death, saying: “It is true, so sad.”

Contacted, the Divisional Police Office at Alausa, Ajao
Adewale, a Chief Superintendent of Police, confirmed
that a man was shot at 10.20 p.m., Sunday, at Alausa.
He added that his vehicle was snatched by his
attackers.

“We don’t know him but we have commenced
investigations into the attack,” he added.The
atmosphere at his home on Atinuke Ologunde Crescent,
Ogudu GRA, Lagos was filled with gloom as
sympathizers trickled in to condole with his widow.
None of them nor family members was willing to speak
on the tragedy.The Ekiti State-born Ogunro was one of
the pioneers of advertising practice in Nigeria.Fayemi mourns
Meantime, Governor Kayode Fayemi of the Ekiti State
has expressed shock at the killing of Ogunro who is also
the Chairman of the Board of the Broadcasting Service
of Ekiti State.
Fayemi in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr.
Olayinka Oyebode, said Ogunro’s murder had broken the
hearts of the people of the state whom he served
diligently in his lifetime.
The governor said Ogunro was a thoroughbred Ekiti son,
a professional who identified with his people wherever
he found himself.

He urged all relevant security agencies to work hard and
ensure that the killers of the BSES boss are brought to
justice within the shortest possible time.
The governor, who has since paid a condolence visit to
the family of the late Oguro in Lagos, yesterday, said
those who cut down the Ekiti shining star must not be
allowed to get away with the crime.
He said Ogunro had contributed immensely to the
development of Ekiti State in the area of economic
empowerment of Ekiti indigenes and through useful
advice that assisted in taking the state to greater
heights.

Fayemi wondered why a harmless person like Ogunro
could be killed in cold blood, saying his administration
would do everything possible to assist security agencies
in bringing his killers to book.
He said: “We are appalled and shocked by this
gruesome murder of an Ekiti shining light who was a
role model to the young generation.
“He believed in hard work and rose to the pinnacle of
advertising and marketing communications.


“His sterling qualities inspired our administration to
appoint him as the chairman of the state broadcasting
service and turned around the fortunes of the
corporation within the short time he held office.
“This is a monumental loss for the government and
people of Ekiti State and we urge security agencies to
do everything humanly possible to bring the
perpetrators of this dastardly act to justice.”

Really? Tell us what you know. We already know that the frog-eyed thief has murderous antecedents. . . Funsho Williams et al, but we do not know about his affiliation with Mr. Ogunro.

Nonetheless, I wouldn't like to play politics with this gruesome murder. I find it really despicable how useless vermins, dregs of the earth, can so easily snuff life out of a person going about his business, causing untold grief. I really, really, REALLY despise violent criminals. They deserve the worst form of jungle justice. It is probably forgivable to scam, loot, manipulate or whatever. But violently attacking a person - maiming, raping, and killing - in the name of trying to make ends meet, is completely intolerable.

Such a successful man who has paid his dues in life. The least he deserved was to enjoy the fruits of his hard work and die of natural.causes when his time comes. It is really painful that one useless brigand somewhere, a bàstard who adds no value to the world and should have been aborted by his equally useless mother, should so casually end this man's life for the fun of it. May God comfort his family.

I met Mr.Ogunro sometime in 2011.
Very civil in behaviour and quite unassuming.
May his soul rest in peace.
