Three teenagers have been arrested in connection with the death of a 16-year-old Nigerian, Folajimi Orebiyi, who was stabbed to death in Notting Hill, West London.

The Metropolitan police said two of the suspects – 16-year-old boys – were arrested on Monday night and were being held at separate London police stations.

The third suspect, a 15-year-old boy, was arrested earlier in the evening.
A resident, Mark Gettleson, said he was amazed by the incident and demanded that the perpetrators be arrested and brought to book.

A Nigerian security expert, Dr. Ona Ekhomu, said the attacks might have been carried out by Britons who lacked proper understanding of Brexit.

Ekhomu added, “This is something that is expected as fallout of the Brexit vote because the Brexit itself succeeded in xenophobia. Most Nigerians migrate to the UK on visas as against those who used EU protocol to come into the UK. However, a common, uneducated British guy does not know the difference.

“They think everybody is an EU beneficiary, who comes to take up their jobs. In fact, many Nigerians in the UK are expressing fears of violence and a few have said they might consider coming back to Nigeria.”

“Our government must be very aggressive about this by using diplomatic leverage.”

Congrats man....wishn u a blissful Life Ahead.

Thanks, corrected

VeniceTown:
And who told you one has to have the "fear " of God to be a good man ? What does fear of God even mean ? I stopped reading after this post of yours....you religious folks always use this line like only Christians get married or live a just life. Some of you "God fearing " men are worst than Amadioha. Even with the number of so called God fearing men, the country is full of shameless women beaters and pedophiles who are waiting for whose life to devour. One doesn't need to be God fearing to be a good man. It tells me about your level of intelligence anyway. Have a nice day.

Open a thread for motor car parks tout and we will discuss it. Join sane people to say no to highway hawking if you truly want the development and progress of Lagos.

Lol funny u

hundredhundred:
There is continuity, you can ask anyone in Lagos for Fashola vocational schools, I know of a graduate learning beads making there. Lagos is a mega city and high way hawking is a no for that kinda city. I support my governor on this one.

What has the Governor done about the main threats. The so called Agbero (park Touts who are actually behind the hold up attacks /stealing /robbery/and harassment of people?

‘IT WAS OVER SILLY BEEF’ TEENAGER, 16, KNIFED TO DEATH IN LONDON STREET NEAR ICONIC SET OF HUGH GRANT’S NOTTING HILL SHOP
Fola Orebiyi was helped by horrified onlookers who are ‘shaken to the core’ by brutal stabbing in Notting Hill

THE tragic teen knifed to death just yards from the iconic bookshop featured in the film Notting Hill was allegedly protecting a friend over a “silly argument” when he was killed.

Fola Orebiyi died on the pavement of Portobello Road in front of horrified onlookers who say he was chased by a gang on bikes.

This is the first picture of 16-year-old Fola Orebiyi who was knifed in London’s trendy Notting Hill

Friends of Fola say he ‘was a lovely boy’

Paramedics desperately try to save the 16-year-old boy’s life has lies critically injured on Portobello Road, Notting Hill, last night

His pal, who wouldn’t give his name, lay flowers for the 16-year-old and said: “Fola was a lovely boy. So lovely.
“He wouldn’t hurt a fly.
“I know what happened, he was protecting a friend over a silly beef which turned violent.

“But no arrests have been made. They haven’t caught the people who did this.
“I put sunflowers down for him.”

Fola was apparently protecting a friend when he was killed
Witnesses say drinkers at the Portobello Star pub rushed to help the boy as they saw him stagger down the street at 8.45pm yesterday evening, but he collapsed near to Portobello Arts Club.

But despite paramedics’ efforts, the youngster lost his fight for life just two doors down from the book shop featured in Hugh Grant’s Notting Hill film.

He is the fourth teenager to be killed in London so far this year.

Passersby read tributes to the much-loved teen


Flowers have been laid at the scene where the boy was knifed to death aged just 16 years old

A mum-of-one said she watched police resuscitate the teen after he collapsed.

The woman who asked not to be named said: “It was traumatising.

“It took half an hour for the ambulance to arrive even though there are hospitals all around.

“I spoke to the person who called the police and he said it took them so long to get here.

All I could see were his feet and lots of blood. I’m a mum, for me this is so sad, that’s someone’s child. That’s someone’s baby.

“The police were all on him trying to resuscitate. All I could see were his feet and lots of blood.

“I’m a mum, for me this is so sad, that’s someone’s child. That’s someone’s baby.”

Tributes at the scene of the murder include flowers, candles, pictures and a box of tissues for mourners.

An elderly resident nearby, who wished to remain anonymous, said: “I was watching TV when I heard an awful commotion downstairs.

“I watched out of the window and could see the reflection of a police car.

“There were loads of people including paramedics with orange vests on

Alternative like what? Fashola started some vocational schools and even begged them to go enroll cos its free( Knew like 2 people that enrolled for beads making) . We need to act before it get out of hand, traffic or high way hawking should be condemned by all sane people, its totally wrong.

If there was continuity on fashola s programs, but no continuity. All the project are abandoned
The economy is harsh right now for such decision

hundredhundred:
I support the law 200%. I was nearly robbed at Maryland in 2007 by some ediots pretending to sell bottle water, this law have been existing for long in Lagos, I think since the time of Fash. No to street or traffic hawking.

I understand you bro,what of the people doing the hawking genuinely, will they starve, what we are saying is govt should provide alternative

Not now

Marry when you are. Ready
Once it's the right person you will kno

Marriage is a very crucial stage in human beings that must be not rushed into. Some go into marriage because of panic” My friends are getting married at final year or immediately after graduation or NYSC”. They compare themselves with others ignorant of the fact that fingers are not equal. Some leap into marriage because of pressure. It is vital that everyone knows that marriage is a lifelong project and succumbing to pressure without personal conviction is not wise .This may be parental pressure , peer pressure or pressure from the proposing partner.
The desperation to meet some personal pressing needs is the major reason why some make hasty choice in marriage . The need may be financial, emotional , psychological ,self esteem or sex. Others rush into marriage because of a painful breakup , some marry so as to escape from parental influence either positive or negative. It should be noted that no matter how desirable these moves are, they all give a wrong foundation for a lasting marriage that will be enjoyed and not just endured.
The primary reason for marriage is PARTNERSHIP therefore the right wife is expected to be a partner and not a housemaid and the husband is expected to be a “sugar daddy”. They must be people who can relate with each other as friends and partner in progress. The corollary to the foregoing is that the person who will be your true partner must be such a person with whom you can have mutual friendship , you should be able to play with that person , you should be able to work with that person , you are to be intellectually compatible , even though you are at different levels . This means that the difference should compliment. You must have common interests , share decisions together and have the same value. Such kind of partner is the right person for you.

OP, What's your definition of a good man?

I guess a man that has got the fear of God,a man that is slow to anger....

Wow!  She’s so lucky’’, one of the women in the room said.  “Lucky is understating it o’’, the other replied. These women have been talking for over thirty minutes and just wouldn’t stop. On top what na?

One of them had just come back from a wedding and would not stop gushing about how lucky and blessed the bride was to have “caught’’a man like that.  According to her, to even get a man these days no be beans, not to talk of settling down right after youth service.

“Nothing gives a woman much respect as being married, all these ones insisting on getting a job first are just deceiving themselves’’, she continued.  Who’s this woman throwing shade at?  Well, do I blame her? In a society where single ladies are seen as irresponsible, and in some cases branded prostitutes all in the name of being single, need we ask more questions? I have seen cases where contracts are refused single women, not because they are incompetent, but simply because of their status.

Well, trust me not to let that slide. I was quick to answer that some of us would rather work and earn a living before jumping into Madam’s idea of heaven. Trust her stubborn self not to give up, she insisted all these could be done in hubby’s house. “Who says hubby can’t even get you a job?’’ she snapped back. I got so irritated I could puke.  These are the people that make it look like men are doing us some sorta favours by marrying us.

Recently, I had a pastor ask me after church service, “When is he coming to see Mummy na?’’  Haha, you should have seen the look on my face as I asked who he was talking about. “Eeeh Sir, I ain’t rushing o, I need to work for now, I m just 23 and there’s no need to rush’’.  I think that must have sent a message so he doesn’t make it a routine check on Sundays.

Now, this isn’t to say marriage isn’t important, but the way people go about it? Definitely annoying.  Everyone makes it look like the lady has struck gold. Can we make it look the other way? Yes, that way! Like he’s struck gold finally getting a babe like me, like you!

Do not ever believe that good men are scarce as yours would surely find you. Refuse to give in to pressure; you are more likely to fall into wrong hands when desperate. Be yourself; be confident and be ready. Walk into it carefully. Do not skydive o, ‘cos if you do, you’d come out same way. Forever is way too long to be sad.

I don’t really believe in time frames, when you are ready, you are ready. It can be anytime, whether it’s when you’re just finishing school or when you turn 30 , when the circumstances are right and you’ve found the ‘one’ then you get married.

P.S:  Do you really think it’s hard to find a good Man/woman these days? Let’s talk about it. Nice day people.
