Engineer Funsho Williams, a gubernatorial aspirant for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, was assassinated at his home on Thursday. His death is believed to be politically motivated due to wrangling between his supporters and those of another aspirant within the same party. The police should investigate all possible suspects, including those within the PDP, as well as those outside the party who may have seen Williams as a potential threat to their governorship ambitions. This is the 25th political assassination since 2001 in Lagos State.
