Slain Lawyer's Mother Reveal She Was Carrying Twins

The mother of late Omobolanle Raheem, the lawyer who was shot dead by Drambi Vandi, a policeman attached to the Ajiwe Police Station, Ajah, Lagos State, said the victim was pregnant with twins.

The bereaved woman, who spoke during a condolence visit to the family by the state Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alabi, said, "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.

“It is not easy. A child that I have been training since childhood. I suffered over her. I hawked oranges; there is nothing I did not do.”

Recall that late Omobolanle Raheem was shot dead by Drambi Vandi, a policeman attached to the Ajiwe Police Station, Ajah, Lagos State on Christmas day.
