Four Nigerian Youths Jailed For British Teenager's Murder EDITED

angry angry

Three men have been jailed for at least 18 years each for murdering a 15-year-old schoolboy at a tube station.

Sofyen Belamouadden was stabbed nine times after pupils from two rival schools clashed at Victoria station in central London in March 2010.

Obi Nwokeh, 19, Christopher Omoregrie, 18, and Samson Odegbune, 18, were given life sentences at the Old Bailey and told they must serve a minimum of 18 years. They were ordered to serve concurrent eight-year detention sentences for conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm.

The judge, Christopher Moss, said the "ferocious and merciless attack" took place in front of horrified commuters. "You gathered together for the purpose of serious mass violence in a busy public place at the height of the rush hour," he said.

Moss was sentencing eight people found guilty of various offences during a series of trials. He said the 12-second attack on Sofyen had followed a minor confrontation the day before between pupils of two west London schools in the food area of Victoria station.

After messages by text and on Facebook, pupils from the defendants' school armed themselves with knives and a samurai sword, expecting the other group to attack their school. But the confrontation came at Victoria when pupils from Sofyen's school were charged by teenagers led by Odegbune holding the sword.

A breakaway group chased Sofyen into the tube ticket office area and kicked, stabbed and struck him with other weapons as travellers watched in disbelief. The judge said the youths had shown no remorse and had not acknowledged responsibility for the death.

Earlier, Sofyen's father, Abdeslan, 51, said his son had been a promising footballer who dreamed of playing for England. "He was a star in the making. He was an outstanding all-round player. He was born and bred in London and often talked of his ambition to represent England in the World Cup final."

He said in an impact statement that Sofyen's death had left his family devastated. "I have no wish to inflict revenge on the culprits but Sofyen, whose life was tragically cut short, would expect justice to take its course. I often think of the suffering he must have gone through, that he was set upon with such savagery and why I was not there to protect him," he said.

Sofyen's mother, Naima Belamouadden, said: "I hope the memory of what they did to my son lives with them every day as it lives with me."

Adonis Akra, 18, Samuel Roberts, 19, and Femi Oderinwale, 18, were found guilty of manslaughter and given 12 years' detention each. Victoria Osoteku, 19, the only woman charged in connection with the death, was also found guilty of manslaughter and will be sentenced next week. Tyrone Richards, 17, and Enoch Amoah, 19, were found guilty of conspiracy to commit GBH and were sentenced to seven years' detention.

The defendants, all from west London, were among 20 pupils charged in connection with the attack. Four youths were earlier sentenced to two years' detention after pleading guilty to violent disorder. Three have been cleared of all charges and four others are still to be tried.

Seriously, a lot of Nigerian parents in the UK are doing a very bad job of taking care of their wards.

Until I returned to Nigeria a few months ago my parents called almost every night to make sure we were all home and doing fine. . . . .

Da hell did these kids learn to carry weapons with the intention of hurting someone else? Can't put my finger round it. The british system does not help in the slighest. This is just crazy! Simply crazy!

I don't understand this British legal system. Full of crap. Ibori was jailed 13 years for a money laundering charge that is of no use to the UK itself, and here we have proven cold-blooded killers being slapped in the wrist with a mere 18 years and less! These useless animals should be sentenced to DEATH, or at the very least jailed for LIFE without possibility of parole. I don't care how young they are, or how their age precludes them from maximum punishment. That was someone's child they killed deliberately and mercilessly. If I was the dead child's parent I would send a hit squad after them and their families, that's for sure.

This was a well circulated story in the UK. The murdered teen was set upon by a group of teenagers in full view of returning commuters near a train station. The youths involved were clearly British citizens of Nigerian descent. Only highlighting this for the benefit of diasporan parents.

Nowt to do with inferiority complex.

well said.

The system over there has little or no compatibility with the typical African (Nigerian) setting. Most people who relocate there have the sole intention of making the money and once that has consumed their minds every other thing is meaningless. These children imbibe what they are exposed to and "wysiwyg"

Unfortunately tragedies like this have now become a recurring decimal, because so many Nigeria parents simply do not understand what it takes to raise a (male) child in Britain.

^^^Believe me you don't wanna go there, fuckin/g Arrow. There's only one Igbo name there, yet all you see is IGBO. Check the names of ALL in the posse and see if you don't see names from other Nigerian ethnicities there.

Just last week in London, Three boys were sentenced to life for the shooting of a poor little girl that left her disabled- the Nigerian boy wasn't Igbo. Also,two weeks ago a Nigerian boy was sentenced to life again for the death of the son of a Ghanaian sports Journalist working with BEN TV- he wasn't Igbo too.
