Paul Erhahon
What is going on in London for goodness sake? All this killing of teenagers by teenagers is getting out of hand. Is there no parental and authority control over there? Why are this children allowed to destroy themselves?
Another teenager was stabbed and killed yesterday Friday April 6th. The victim was 14 year old Paul Erhahon, who was stabbed alongside his 15-year-old friend near a block of flats in Leytonstone during a confrontation with a large gang of youths. His friend survived it but Paul later died in the hospital.
His murder follows a number of other violent gang-related murders involving teenagers in the UK.
You all remember Adam Regis? 15-year-old nephew of Olympic sprinter John Regis, who was stabbed to death in an east London street last month, just days after 16-year-old Kodjo Yenga was knifed to death in west London.
In February 2007 alone, three teenagers were shot dead in separate incidents in south London.
And remember 11 year old Damilola Taylor?
What is going on people? Especially you Nigerians who live in the UK. Are your kids safe there? This killing seem to be getting out of hand and I am so scared for Nigerian teenagers growing up in such an environment.
And why isn't the Government over there doing anything to clip the wings of this teenager? They are letting them get away with something as serious as murder. They are killing people like it's the most natural thing to do. What is the problem? what are they fighting about? And the worse part of all this is that it's mostly blacks that are being killed...by their fellow blacks. 70% or more of the dead teenagers are Africans. Why? Murder committed by children who should be in school studying to be better in life.
If all they know now as teenagers is carrying weapons, violence and murder, what will happen when they become adults? Soon London will become very volatile if nothing is done about this ASAP!
I think it's time the Government take a very drastic measure to curb this insanity. Young people don't deserve to die this way...no one deserves to be stabbed to death over issues I'm sure are very trivial.
Sincerely I fear for Nigerian teenagers who live in this part of London. If you think it's not safe for your children over there, move them to a safer environment or simply send them back home. Home is safer!
