Human rights’ activist, Omoyele Sowore, has said that his late younger brother, Felix Olajide Sowore was assassinated by “everything that is not right”.

In a tribute to Olajide who was reportedly killed by herdsmen in the Okada area of Edo State on Saturday, Sowore noted that his younger brother was an out-of-the-box thinker who created his own genre of music.

Gunmen suspected to be herdsmen had earlier shot dead Felix at Okada area in the Ovia North-East Local government area of Edo State on Saturday morning.

The death of Olajide who was a student of Pharmacy at the Igbinedion University before the unfortunate incident, threw the family into mourning.

The incident was confirmed by Okada Divisional Police Officer, noting that Felix was murdered in cold blood by bloodthirsty herdsmen.

Sowore, in a post said, “I have VERY SAD NEWS! My immediate younger brother, Olajide Sowore was today shot and killed near Okada in Edo state by reportedly herdsmen /kidnappers on his way from Igbinedion University in Edo sate where he is studying Pharmacy.

“They snuffed out the life of yet another real human being! Rest In Power, “Dr. Mamiye! This act in itself will not delay their day of justice. I travelled widely with you and our father as a little kid. You were the most loved robust kid I ever first knew. You, Mr. Magnet had no enemy!

“You, Mr. Sunshine Foundation who made everyone happy; you, the boy who snuck out his older ones to parties, taking all the blames when our disciplinarian father found out. You, the guy who was an out-of-the-box thinker who decided school wasn’t for you and created you own genre of music and then turned around to go to school after you almost turned 50!

“You lived your life so that everyone could be alright but now assassinated by everything that’s not alright! Saddest day yet!” He said.
