The Nigerian
Guild of Editors yesterday urged the Lagos State Police Commissioner, Umar
Manko, to urgently track down the killers of the Deputy Editor, Newswatch
Newspapers, Toyin Obadina.
The request
is part of a statement issued by the NGE President, Femi Adesina.
While
condemning the proliferation of small arms across the country, the Nigerian
Guild of Editors urged relevant authorities to rise to the occasion and end
acts of criminality in Nigeria.
Mr Obadina was shot on Friday by yet to be
identified gunmen, on his way to his residence, in Ikorodu, Lagos. He was
rushed to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital where he gave up the
ghost early today.
