In the wake of the horrific and senseless murder of Chief Jude Oguejiofor, it is with deep sorrow and condemnation that I condole with the Eastern Bar Forum. Chief Oguejiofor’s untimely and gruesome death is not only a profound loss to his family but also a devastating blow to the legal fraternity, particularly in Nnewi branch of the NBA.
I extend my heartfelt condolences to Chief Oguejiofor’s family, NBA Nnewi branch, Ihiala Community and the entire Eastern Bar Forum, during this incredibly difficult time. Losing a loved one in such a violent and senseless manner is a tragedy beyond words, and my thoughts and prayers are with them as they navigate through this unimaginable grief.
While we grieve this profound loss, let me also use this opportunity to call for swift and thorough investigation to ensure that those responsible for this heinous crime are brought to justice. Acts of violence against members of the legal profession not only undermine the fabric of our society but has continue to threaten the very foundation of justice and the rule of law.
May the soul of Chief Jude Oguejiofor rest in peace, and may his legacy continue to inspire all those he left behind to strive for a more just and compassionate society.
