<\/p>\nDAILY POST reports that Mrs Funke Olakunrin was killed by suspected gunmen along akure-Ore road, in Ondo State.<\/p>\n
The Senate in a statement by its Ad-hoc Chairman on Media and Public Affairs, Sen. Adedayo Adeyeye, described the gruesome killing of the 58-year-old woman as very sad, devastating and a worrisome development.<\/p>\n
Adeyeye said the Senate was disturbed by the spate of incessant attacks and wanton killings of citizens either by hired assassins, herdsmen, kidnappers and or other men of the underworld.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe perpetrators of this heinous crime are wreaking havoc on the lives and properties of innocent citizens in the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow have we gone this bad?,\u2019\u2019 he lamented.<\/p>\n
He said security of life was a fundamental right of every citizen, adding that Nigerians deserved their inalienable right from the government at all times.<\/p>\n
Adeyeye, however, urged the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu to begin massive manhunt for the killers of Late Mrs Funke Olakunrin and ensure that the perpetrators of this gruesome killing are apprehended.<\/p>\n
He said measures to prevent future occurrence of such incidence should be put in place by improving the security architecture on Nigeria\u2019s highways, at social gatherings and at worship centres nationwide.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Senate further extends its condolences to the elder statesman, Pa Reuben Fasoranti and the entire family.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe pray God will console and be with the entire family in this hour of bereavement,\u2019\u2019 Adeyeye said.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
