‘I Will Never Forgive Buhari For Killing My Brother’ – Nollywood Actor, Nkem Owoh

Nollywood actor, Nkem Owoh has spoken about a
very painful subject regarding the death of his
younger brother Bartholomew Owoh.
Bartholomew Owoh was one of the three young
Nigerians executed by General Buhari for an
offence that allegedly did not carry the death
penalty. Bernard Ogedengbe (29), Bartholomew
Owoh (26) and Lawal Ojuolape (30) were publicly
executed by General Buhari.
According to a source close to the Nollywood
actor who spoke with Breaking Times, Nkem
Owoh and the rest of his family have not
recovered from the trauma of the cold-blooded
killing of the three young men, particularly their
brother and son, Bartholomew Owoh by President Buhari.
The laws of Nigeria at the time the offence was
committed did not prescribe the death penalty.
When Buhari took over power, he insisted the
young men should be executed and they were
killed publicly by the firing squad.
According to the source, “Nkem Owoh and his
family have not forgiven Buhari for killing their
brother at the young age of 26.
Every time Nkem Owoh sees Buhari on TV, he
weeps bitterly over his brother. He can’t even
believe that Buhari has the nerve to seek re-
election as President”.
Bartholomew Owoh and others were allegedly
arrested for peddling cocaine and convicted for
that crime.
