It was a grate shock as the daughter of the Chairman of Afenifere Social-Cultural Organisation, Baba Reuben Fasoranti who was killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen yesterday in Ondo State.
It was gathered that the 58 years old daughter of Afenifere leader, Barrister Funke Olakunrin was killed when heading to Ore junction from Akure, Ondo State.
According to Afenifere spokesman, Mr. Yinka Odumakin, who confirmed the sad story to be true said Barrister Funke Olakunrin was attracted and shot dead at Ore Junction from Akure, Ondo State by Fulani herdsmen.
He said,
"We have confirmed the death of Mrs. Funke Olakunrin (58), daughter of our leader, Chief Fasoranti."
“Eyewitness accounts say she died of gunshots from Fulani herdsmen who shot her at Ore junction in Ondo State earlier today."
“She was coming from Akure when the armed Fulani herdsmen came from the bush to attack her and other vehicles."
“Her domestic staff in the car with her also sustained gunshots."
“This is one death too many and a clear we-can-take-it-no-more death.”
Olufunke is the second child of 94-year-old Fasoranti to die. The elder statesman had also lost a daughter, Bunmi, some years ago." he stated.
