The father of a 26-year-old pregnant woman, who was murdered in the Arepo area of Ogun State last week, has blamed President Goodluck Jonathan for the incident.
Mr. Babafemi Ojo, whose daughter Damilola Fajana, was killed on April 28, said this in a statement.
The father said, “My daughter was killed in a crossfire while driving back home after a hard day’s job. Damilola was a 26 year old pregnant lawyer. She was a graduate of the University of Ado Ekiti.
“President Jonathan is linked to her death by the reason of his patronage of people who have no basic training in arms and weaponry — in the business of pipeline protection, a very dangerous security enterprise which is supposed to fall under the purview of trained Nigerian security agencies.”
He added that, “The unconstitutional empowerment of ethnic militias has resulted in the deaths of many innocent Nigerians, particularly in Arepo area of Ogun State."
Mr Ojo said it was unfortunate that Jonathan could hire the services of the OPC and award the group a huge contract just because he wanted to win an election.
His daughter was killed by a stray bullet during a gun battle between the OPC and pipeline vandals.
