Death of Alamieyeseigha’s Son: Keyamo Accuses FG of Double
Standards
Mr. Festus Keyamo
By Tobi Soniyi in Abuja

Lagos lawyer, Mr. Festus Keyamo, has accused the federal
government of applying a double standards in commiserating with
families who suffer tragic losses of their loved ones.
The accusation w contained in a statement he (Keyamo) issued
yesterday in Lagos where he questioned why the federal government
was indifferent when the news of the murder of Toba Falode in Dubai
was announced, eight months after, whereas, it (federal government)
swiftly issued a statement not only commiserating with former
Bayelsa State governor, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha over the tragic
murder of his son, Oyamuyefa, in the same Dubai, last weekend, but
also calling on the United Arab Emirates (UAE) authorities to fish out
the killers of the younger Alamieyeseigha.
Although Keyamo commiserated with the former Bayelsa governor, he
noted that Toba Falode was murdered in Dubai in February this year,
lamenting that eight months after, the federal government has neither
commiserated with Toba’s mother, Aisha Falode, nor shown any
concern on the tragic murder to warrant urging the UAE authorities to
investigate the murder, even when Aisha’s personal investigation had
unravelled the killers of her son. Yet, it swiftly issues a statement
barely a day after the news of the murder of Alamieyeseigha’s son
broke.
Keyamo then asked if the President had different value scale for the
lives of the nation’s citizens.
President Jonathan was the deputy governor to Alamieyeseigha while
the duo served in Bayelsa between 1999 and 2005, when the latter
was impeached.
Part of Keyamo’s letter read: “It is with a heavy heart and sadness
that we received the news of the untimely death of a citizen of Nigeria
in Dubai, Mr. Oyamuyefa Alamieyeseigha. It is particularly painful to
note that he died in his prime and under questionable circumstances.
However, we note the swiftness with which the federal government
responded to this sad and painful news with a call on the UAE
authorities to fish out the killers of Mr. Oyamuyefa Alamieyeseigha.
However, whilst this action of the federal government is
commendable, it smacks of double standards. Recall that on 15th of
February, 2014, Toba (Tyler) Falode was also murdered in hazy
circumstances in Dubai. Recall also that the mother, Aisha Falode
took it upon herself to carry out some discreet investigation into
those circumstances and has since been crying out for justice for her
son. Up till this minute, the federal government has not issued a
single statement calling on the UAE authorities to fish out the killers
of Toba Falode. The federal government has played the ostrich in the
case of Toba, leaving the mother and family grieving alone. The
question is, with the swift response in the case of Oyamuyefa
Alamieyeseigha, does the federal government value the lives of some
of its citizens more than others?”
Keyamo argued that the lackadaisical attitude of the government
when its nationals are murdered land emboldens foreigners to keep
attacking and killing Nigerians abroad.
“it must be said that it is the lukewarm attitude of the federal
government towards the earlier cases of Nigerians murdered abroad
like the case of Toba that has emboldened foreigners in foreign lands
to snuff the lives out of Nigerians without any qualms. If the federal
government has shown more interest in the case of Toba, perhaps the
precious life of Mr. Oyamuyefa Alamieyeseigha would have been
saved.”
According to him, “It is important to note that we have written
statements of witnesses who confirmed that the killer of Toba Falode
confessed to the crime, and these statements have since been
forwarded to the UAE Government, but it is such a shame that
nothing has been heard or done eight months after”.
The circumstances surrounding the murder of Alamieyeseigha’s son
remains foggy, as some accounts claim the man committed suicide
while another account says the body of Oyamuyefa was found in the
elevator of his hotel in Dubai.

Yes, that's his work. No matter how grave your offence is, a lawyer will always fight your case

Gej, the most controversial president!!!

Everything in Nigeria is stacked against everyday people in Nigeria.
They bear the brunt of bad Govt policy. Even Boko Haram killing target them... From Suleja bombing, to that of Iyanya; even the EMAB plaza saga.

GEJ just took it to an all time low.
Shame on him!

How can just quote that long Write up? Can't u just post ur stvpid comment rather occupy such long space?

Fvcking president and stupid Nigerian Government.

When over 250 girls were kidnaped there was no public statemment from the stvpid Government denoucing the kkidnap.

And to think that this same government gave the thief alamesigha presidential pardon is even a testament to the doubble standards.

Gej, the most controversial president!!!

Shhhhhhhhh. Looks left, right, and heave a sigh of relief. Breaths in deeply.

Wispers to moneybag...

NOR LET MBU HEAR WETIN U JUST TALK NOW OOOOO.....

Sad as it is, we are not all equal. Some people are more 'prominent' or 'eminent' than others; some are more consequential (I deliberately avoided the word 'important'). Some are more famous. . . .and infamous. . .than others. The notion of equality is a myth, even in the most advanced countries. Too many examples of this abound; I wouldn't even bother. Deal with it. Here is a consolation: we are all equal only after we are dead. . .in God's sight. . .and ultimately (and quite humbling), we are all inconsequential in the continuum of eternity.

You are right, aren't you? The son of a disgraced thief/treasury looter is more eminent than that of a decent hardworking, law abiding citizen; even in death.
This must be an evident that our president is upright and Nigeria is improving.
