We have just been informed that a prominent politician was assassinated at Dolphin Estate which has led to heavy police presence on Osborne Road.

Breaking News reaching us from the electronic media, STV, LTV, Channels TV reports that the versatile humanist and amiable politician, Engineer Funsho Williams was found dead this morning, alleged to have been murdered by assassins.

There is no doubt that having contested twice for the coveted seat of power in Lagos State, Nigeria. Engineer Williams is the most notable aspirant from PDP for that seat again as we approach another season of electioneering in the next few months.

Whatever the final outcome of police investigations, (if there would ever be a finality, Bola Ige's high-profile murder, Harry Marshall, Abubarkar Rimi's wife, etc. and other unending and unresolved political assassinations within the last seven years under the PDP federal government remains a mystery).

Recently his political rally in the domain of his estranged godson in Ikorodu led to a bloody and fatal clash with thugs allegedly sponsored by his opponents in that domain. His shocking murder proves once again what the sage Wole Soyinka, told us a few years ago that "PDP is a nest of killers". A party that kills its own.

Where is tolerance, if now, 8 clear months to election, politicians who feel threatened by opponents begin to kill each other? Adieu Captain, may your death provoke a total disgrace and exposure of all the powers behind the unresolved and mystery political murders of the last seven years in this country.

This is to inform everyone that the story about Funso Williams is confirmed o!!!.  In light of this I’m suggesting that you leave the office early (4:00pm) in case of any civil disturbance that may occur.

Safety in Lagos is not guaranteed

Bola Ige, Harry (whatever),,
in fact i can't remember their names again,
the list goes on. and on,

and 2007 is still far o,
so let's keep counting, more expected

When will this cycle of violence end? The growing level of insecurity in the land is unacceptable.
What do you expect in a party that parades Chris Uba - the man that wreaked havoc in Anambra, Lamidi Adedibu - the godfather in Oyo, Alamisiegha - the terrorist from Bayelsa to mention but a few.

I hope the people of Nigeria will rise up to take power from these usurpers of power.

How else will you want to kill to serve Nigerians?

The killers in PDP must be exposed, they must not go unpunished.
--------------------

The annoying thing is that they may claim that its armed robbers and make fictitious arrests, or even arrest the poor guys household security personnel.

As the news of the assassination of one of Lagos state's PDP gubernatorial aspirants continue to circulate around the globe, one wonders what awaits us in 2007. Funsho Williams, just like several other uncelebrated political office aspirants have been caught down in the march to 2007.
When shall this politics of diaffection, bloodletting, hatred, etc vanish from our lives? The desperation continues to build up. When are we going to be free from all these. 
God save Nigeria.
