Breaking: Late Gani Fawehinmi’s first son, Mohammed, is dead

658

 

The first son of the late legal icon and human rights lawyer, Chief Gani Fawehinmi, Mohammed, has passed on.

Aged 52, Mohammed, a lawyer, reportedly died on Wednesday, August 11, 2021 after experiencing “breathing difficulties.”

The late Mohammed had a law degree from the University of Buckingham, England and was called to Nigerian bar in 1998.

Persecondnews recalls that in 2003, Mohammed had a horrific auto crash in Lagos which affected his spinal cord and confined him to the wheel chair.

Mohammed, it was learnt, was unmarried before his death.

He said in a media interview in 2018: “The accident has affected my life in many ways. I just felt that I should not bother any woman with my condition.

“I did not want anybody to marry me out of pity. Even though I always have females around me.

“It is not every woman that can stay with a person with disability of my kind.

“Most of the women I have met in recent times are not the ones that can stay with a man, they are the type who would want to attend parties and keep all sorts of friends instead of looking after me.

“Of course, a few have come close to what I want but the temperament is nothing to write home about.”
