“She was my only child and…” – Slain Lawyer’s Mum Speaks

The mother of Bolanle Raheem, a lawyer who was murdered on Christmas day, December 25, by a police officer in the Ajah Area of Lagos state, has expressed her sadness over the loss of her daughter.

According to the mum, Bolanle was her only child and she was pregnant with twins.

She explained that she hawked oranges to ensure that Bolanle studied law in university.

“I cannot see my ‘The Law’ again. People usually call her ‘The Law’. She was taken away from me. She was pregnant with twins. She died with her glory. She left a five-year-old daughter behind. And they took her away.

“On Monday, my granddaughter came to me and said ‘Grandma Iju Ishaga, I saw you yesterday when you were crying; you were shouting; is it because of my mummy?’ And I said ‘yes’.

“Then she came again and told me, ‘Pastor Jerry said what God cannot do does not exist; so, grandma, stop crying’. And she kissed me on the cheek.

“God please fight for me. My only child.” she said”
