By Ayodele Oluwafemi
Slain Remo Stars Football Club playmaker, Kazeem Tiamyu was to proceed to Europe for trials with a European football club in three weeks his father, Fasasi Tiamiyu has revealed.
Kazeem Tiamiyu met his death on Saturday, when he was hit by a hit-and-run driver after he was allegedly thrown out of a moving vehicle.
Fasasi, who was a former Deputy Leader of the Ogun State House of Assembly who represented Ward 11, Sagamu Local Government Area. He said he had nurtured the hopes of seeing his son play for a European team before his demise.
He called on security operatives to bring the killer of his son to book and make them face the consequences of their action.
In his words, “The SARS operatives have just wiped out my joy by killing him in cold blood for nothing. His agent had just secured a trial for him with a Swedish club and he was due to leave in three weeks for the trial overseas.
“They accused him of wearing military fatigues but when we got to the hospital where he was taken to, Kazeem had his club’s jersey and shorts on.
“I had high hopes of seeing my son play in Europe and also representing the Nigerian national team, the Super Eagles, someday in the nearest future.
“Look at how the police just shattered the dreams of my son. Now he’s dead and they are trying to shield the killers from facing justice. I thought police were meant to protect the citizens now they are the ones killing Nigerians.”
