Goodluck Jonathan- herdsmen or gunmen?
Former President Goodluck Jonathan found himself Sunday embarrassed by his being discovered to have edited his initial posts on Facebook and Twitter, following the killing of Funke Olakunrin, daughter of Pa Reuben Fasoranti, the leader of one of the Afenifere factions.
From earlier reports ‘armed Fulani herdsmen’ reportedly ambushed motorists on the Ore-Benin Road on Friday and shot Olakunrin fatally in her car. But the police later gave a clarification that the ethnicity of the attackers is unknown. And there were reports they were masked.
Like some Nigerians grieving with Pa Fasoranti, Jonathan issued four tweets condoling with the old man:
“My heart goes out to Chief Reuben Fasoranti and his entire family over the untimely death of his daughter, Mrs. Funke Olakunrin, at the hands of suspected herdsmen.
Jonathan’s Twitter and Facebook posts in contrast
“No one deserves to hear such news, not the least being Pa Fasoranti, a man that has given so much to Nigeria and asked so little.
“I am encouraged by the message from the Governor of Ondo state and his assurances that those behind this heinous and callous crime will be brought to book.
“Baba, may God comfort you and your family and grant you the fortitude to bear the loss, even as we pray that the Almighty returns peace to Nigeria. My family and I offer you our deepest solidarity now and always. We also extend our arm in love to Afenifere.” GEJ.
