Son of Nigerian member of House of Rep shot dead in a latest gun violence in London
Abraham Badru, 26, who was given a police bravery award as a teenager for saving a woman from a sex attack, was gunned down in the street in Dalston, Hackney, just after 11pm on Sunday.
Mr Badru, who worked as a football coach after earning his Masters degree in 2015, was found slumped on the pavement by police called to reports of a loud gunshot.
He was pronounced dead a short time later. His mother, who had rushed to his side, was seen by witnesses collapsed in tears on the pavement.
Mr Badru’s father Dolapo Badru, 62, is a member of the Nigerian House of Representatives, the country’s 360-seat equivalent to the House of Commons.
Mr Badru worked as a football coach after earning his Masters degree in 2015
He told the Standard his “quiet and hard-working” son once saved a young woman from rape on the estate and later gave evidence which led to her attacker being jailed.
He said: “A few years ago a girl was raped on the estate and Abraham fought them off. He went to court to testify against them and the police gave him an award.”
Friends paid tribute to Mr Badru as a “bubbly and outgoing” young man who was “making a life for himself” after completing his studies.
Police at the scene in Dalston following the shooting which took place on Sunday night
They said he had a fiancee in Nigeria and had volunteered with the Team Nigeria UK football coaching charity, and had been due to coach at an open trial in Charlton today.
A volunteer said: “He’s such a wonderful guy full of life and very hard-working.”
Mr Badru had previously worked with Bristol council as a sport development officer, according to his LinkedIn profile and had interned at non-league Gloucester City FC during his degree studies at the University of Gloucestershire.
Neighbours said Mr Badru had been to church earlier that day and was getting out of his car when he was shot (PA)
In a statement, his former club Almondsbury FC, near Bristol, said: “The club are shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of former striker Abraham Badru.
“We would like to send our thoughts and prayers to Abrahams family during this difficult time.”
Neighbours said Mr Badru had been to church earlier that day and was getting out of his car when he was shot.
One neighbour said: “As soon as I heard the bang, I knew it was a gunshot. I went to my balcony and saw a man slumped over on the ground at the back of a car.
“There was just one shot and a cry of pain. No speeding scooter and no speeding car.”
Another said: “His mother came out and saw him on the floor. It was terrible listening to her collapse crying on the floor. She was just screaming.
“Everyone was very upset and I had to go away, I couldn’t take it. It happened on our doorstep and I had to say a little prayer for the family.”

Singer Brymo set the internet buzzing with picture of him wearing G-Strings and playing piano
Nigerian singer, Brymo breaks the internet with a photo of himself wearing a G string while playing the piano close to a bridge.
The singer who released the visuals for his song 'Heya' off his latest album OṢÓ, has taken his music to another level.
While some have concluded that the singer has proven that his lyrics in Ice prince's hit song, Oleku, isn't a joke, some are questioning the type of weed he has taken.
Iyamu Quebex says: What’s happening to Brymo please? What kind of smoke is this? Why is he wearing G-string and playing piano inside hot sun in his new video? This is confusing.
@femioladehin wrote: Meanwhile... did I ever mention that @BrymOlawale makes the best music in Nigeria? Honestly, its fine if you disagree... if music is about class, distinction and beauty... Brymo packs it all! Yes... He is miles ahead!

Shocking! Check out this huge cobra that was killed by a man in his toilet.
It was around 7.34pm when wanted to use the toilet (pee) I decided to use my touch light to view the sink before action, i saw a black stuff below the water in the toilet seat and I was trying to identify what it could be because I used the toilet some hours ago.
Lo and behold it was a horrible looking cobra. I called the care taker of the hostel where I live, he came and confirmed it.The snake is so big that we couldn't devised another good means to kill it than the use of Gun.
For more than 2hrs the snake was there until we called the attention of the vigilante group and finally it was killed with the aid of a gun.
Please always make sure you look very well before using your toilet. I couldn't believe how it entered but verifications say it came from the toilet suck away pit.

Former Catalonia president arrested in Germany as he cross in from Denmark.
Five months after going on the run from Spanish authorities, Catalonia's former president has been detained in Germany on an international warrant by highway police just after the ardent separatist crossed the border with Denmark.
Carles Puigdemont's capture, aided by Spanish intelligence services, sparked protests of tens of thousands in Catalonia's main city of Barcelona and other towns in the wealthy northeastern corner of Spain.
Some of the demonstrators clashed with riot police, leaving more than 50 civilians and police officers injured and leading to four arrests.
Puigdemont will appear before a German judge on Monday.
Spain was plunged into its worst political crisis in four decades when Puigdemont's government flouted a court ban and held an ad-hoc referendum on independence for the northeastern region in October.
The Catalan parliament's subsequent declaration of independence received no international recognition and provoked a takeover of the regional government by Spanish authorities that they say won't be lifted until a new government that respects Spain's
Spain's state prosecutor office said it was in contact with its German counterparts to carry out its request to extradite Puigdemont to Spain, where he faces charges including rebellion that could put him in prison for up to 30 years.

Ugandan church receives backlash for hiring a white man to play Jesus on Palm Sunday.
One of such person is Mawuna Remarque Koutonin who was disgusted by such act and he wrote this on his Facebook wall,
"African Christians hired a white man to play Jesus for them.
Christianity is a racist religion. It's about the worship of white people.
An African who is a Christian is like a Jew celebrating Hitler and quoting from My Kampf to guide his life"
Palm Sunday is celebrated a week to Easter in Christendom to mark Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem which lead to his passion and death.

17 year old girl declared missing by her family in Port-Harcourt Rivers state.
She is Victoria Woke, referred to as 'Baby' because she's our last born. She went to visit another younger sister of mine at Mile 4 in Portharcourt on Tuesday.
She left the place after spending hours but didn't return to the house. I perceived it to be one of those adolescent mischiefs but we haven't seen or heard from her since Tuesday. Her line is switched off and no one seems to know her whereabouts.
She's just 17, out of secondary school and preparing for University. Please anyone with useful information that can lead to her should contact me. God bless you.
Uche Woke.

Student stabs commercial sex worker to death in Enugu.
A final year student of the Institute Of Management and Technology, IMT, Enugu, reportedly stabbed a commercial sex worker to death over a disagreement on payment.
Mr Emmanuel Ezeugwu, who is in the Department of Public Administration, stabbed the woman at his home and tried to escape to Lagos but was arrested by the Police in Enugu on his way.
The incident happened at about 3:30 a.m. at Onuato Street, Enugu. According to the Police Public Relations Officer, Ebere Amaraizu, the sex worker accompanied Mr Ezeugwu to his apartment, where they had a disagreement which resulted in a scuffle that led to her death.
Amaraizu said the suspect picked up the sex worker at Rangers Avenue on Sunday after they had agreed on a payment of N4,000 for a night with him.
The suspect had had a lot to drink and when they arrived at his home he demanded they have sex immediately but his female companion asked to finish what she was inhaling before they could get down to business.
After pressuring her to have sex with him for several hours, the suspect slept off and woke up before 3 a.m. He then ordered the sex worker to leave his apartment since they ended up not having sex.
The suspect told police that the deceased resisted the order and allegedly warned him to beware as she would not succumb to any threat whatsoever.
The suspect added that the kitchen knife went straight to the stomach of the sex worker and he stabbed her again on the neck region after which she died.
In panic, he wrapped her body and made arrangement to travel to Lagos but he was caught following a tip-off from members of a local vigilante.
The body of the deceased was found at the apartment and deposited at the mortuary of the Eastern Nigeria Medical Centre, Enugu.
