@ALL

Have we all tried finding out if this killing could have been politically motivated or otherwise ?

does Efenji have anything to do with cultists, prollly from Uni or thereafter ?

I say this as . . .the last I read in THE SUNDAY PUNCH was that the killers were alleged to have proclaimed after stabbing him NO ONE F.UCKS WITH THE VIKINGS !!!

Now . . . .I feel there might be more for us to do in form of homework in deciphering why Efenji had 4 people asking his wife to be danced with . . .FFS was she dressed as a slut for them to lust so much after her? such cover-up for a heinous crime of that magnitude ! cry

it's really a pity what happened. no one has then right to take another's life no matter what.

but Modifying Sahara's comment i'd say there might be more to the story. we've only heard 1 side.
for the sake of his new born kid and wife he should have restrained himself from getting into an argument. he would have simply politely apologised to the men for his inability to accede to their request and then proceed to evacuate his family from the premises. it's against the first rule of safety to pick a fight with mad/drunk people. at times cowardliness pays; we should learn to run away to be able to fight another day.

non the less RIP and my heart goes out to his family.

its hard to understand how people could be so heartless
and i'm not just talking about the perpetrators of this crime.
i guess those who have found it convenient to post those
callous comments have resolved within themselves that they
could be party to such misconduct and would not mind much if it
happened to them or theirs.

Its sad when we lose one so close to us. Efenji was close to a lot of us; even though
not personally but all AIT viewers will be shocked to find they will NEVER hear that "slogan"
any more,
EFENJI, EFENJI reporting for AIT news.

adeiu ma brotha!!

This country is not safe any longer.
I meet this guy on Friday 12 at the National Assembly where he's entering his new Honda car.
My wife and I was in the same garden that day, the incident happened when we left. Though we saw some questionable characters there, that is not to say that the place is not good for family hangout, there was even a wedding reception there that day and lots of families with little kids were there playing. This was just a planned assassination. Even though he allowed the guys to dance with his wife they'll still have killed him as that was their mission. It's high time we legalize firearms in this country. Because if I know u have a gun, I won't openly attack you with one, I'll be cautious of being short too.
May his soul rest in peace.

do we have security atall in this country? i dont think so. everybody should just cling tightly to the God he/she is serving cos there is no value for life in this nigeria.

May his soul RIP
Re: AIT Reporter Efenji Efenji Stabbed To Death On Vals Day by Mbeki: 3:36pm On Feb 22, 2010

this shit aint ordinary. wanting to dance with a married mans wife isn't proper and the guys that wanted to dance with her knew this. the case is bigger than just ''dancing and stabbing'', they were sent by someone obviously. cuz i can't just allow anyone i dont know to dance with my wife, i'll refuse. and they knewhe'd refuse. [pretty good alibi, but, not smart enough]. and he isn't just anyone, he's a reporter who probably had dirt on someone. my people open your eyes, this shit aint ordinary. as for the police,

I can't but wholly and completly agree with you archilace. There is a lot more than meets the eye. Nigeria is one big lawless jungle. For sure his killers will never be found!!! If his employers AIT, being a media house mounts too much pressure on the Nigerian Police FARCE, they will just produce some 'innocent' criminals whom they had arrested for some other minor offences and parade them as them as the killers. Period. Nigeria, we hail thee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This whole thing smells of cultism.I wonder how proud they feel when 30 guys jump on just one man.And they call themselves "men"? Vikings? Why don't they face him one on one as "men"?
Re: AIT Reporter Efenji Efenji Stabbed To Death On Vals Day by awolols(m): 8:50am On Mar 10, 2010
Bleep the Nigerian Police Force as a whole, you can imagine en eye witness tryna rescue and he gets arrested, what kind of rubbish is that?. i Think Nigerians need to make a wake up call. Is it until a senator gets stabbed in public before things are done rightly. Some times it might just be suitable to take the laws into ones hands and satisfy your own mind before you get help, Bleep NPF and the whole Force can go to hell for all i care

The story does not add up. A reporter that covers d national assembly, the police delayed is being taken to d hospital, four guys wanted to dance with his Wife all at once, attacked intentionally on d head... My dears, it was premeditated murder. Those guys knew who they were waiting for and the police were planted there to make sure that d guy didn't get help.

obiem: Journalist stabbed to death in front of wife, son

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By Ozioma Ubabukoh and Olusola Fabiyi

A former Senate correspondent of Africa Independent Television, Mr. Efenji Efenji, was on Sunday stabbed to death while celebrating the Valentine with his wife and son at Oakland Garden, Karu, a suburb in Abuja.

According to an eyewitness, a fight ensued when the late radio presenter of Political Platform on Ray Power 100.5 Fm objected to an offer from a four-man gang to dance with his wife.

He had reportedly told them that since she was married, it was not morally right for her to dance with them.

He told them that if she was just a girlfriend, he probably would have considered their request for a dance.

The gang then proceeded to break bottles and started stabbing him while he ran for safety.

Amid the scuffle, it was said that the journalist’s elder brother, Mr. Agwanyan Efenji, took his wife and son as well as those of Mr. Eneji Innocent, a friend of the former AIT correspondent, to safety.

“It was when about 16 other hoodlums joined in stabbing him on the head that the police arrived the scene and arrestedsome of them while I was trying to rescue him and two of the boys who started the fight,” Innocent said.

According to him, all attempts to get the policemen to rush Efenji to hospital failed.

He said, “Instead, they cocked their guns and threatened to label me an armed robber if I failed to get into their vehicle. It was later we heard he had died after losing so much blood.”

However, a Deputy Supritendent of Police, Mr. Moshood Jimoh, said the police had made useful arrests.

“We have made some arrests. I would not like to disclose their identity or their number,” he said.

Jimoh said the Commissioner of Police, FCT Command, Mr. Haruna John, had directed the DCP in charge of the Criminal Investigation Department to handle the case, adding that he would be assisted by some other senior police officers.

He said, “We are not leaving anything to chance. The owner of the place where the stabbing took place is also assisting us with information.

“The corpse has been deposited at the National Hospital, Abuja for an autopsy.”


The Punch

Crazy world ain't it? The Banana republic called Nigeria! Bola Ige, Marshal Harry, Alfred Rewane murders are still unsolved till date so what is Efenji's fate?
you got to be thugged out in Nigeria.
