Reacting in a statement titled, \u201cCommiseration on the reported killing of your brother\u201d, Keyamo expressed sadness over what he described as the \u201csenseless killing\u201d of Sowore\u2019s younger brother.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is quite sad and regrettable that such a young man would be cut down in his prime by criminal elements,\u201d the Senior Advocate lamented.<\/p>\n

However, Keyamo assured that he and other patriotic Nigerians would pressurise law-enforcement agents to get the killers arrested.<\/p>\n

\u201cMyself and other compatriots would be pressurising the law-enforcement agents to track down these killers without delay and bring them to justice. This, and many others around the country, must be checkmated with all arsenals at our disposal,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He urged Sowore \u201cto take heart and remain committed to helping the nation find a lasting solution to some of these numerous challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n
