Grief rules in the heart and home of mother of late Omobolanle Raheem, the lawyer who was shot dead by a policeman, Drambi Vandi, on Sunday.
She cannot stop reliving the great moments she shared with her late daughter, while narrating her expectations and people’s relationship to her.
Vandi is a policeman attached to the Ajiwe Police Station, Ajah, Lagos State.
He shot Raheem on Christmas day under the Ajah bridge while she was driving with her family inside the car.
The bereaved mother said on Tuesday during a condolence visit to the family by the state Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alabi:
“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.”
