NO COURT CASE, HE INTETIONALLY KILLED HIM: HOW POWER, POSITION AND AFFLUENCE MANIPULATE OUR LAWS

Life is full of ups and downs. We live in a society where injustice prevails over justice in some circumstances. Even when the people in-charge know that you are not guilty, they still find it difficult to prove to you that you know nothing.
We live in a society where the first- class citizens are above the laws; when they intentionally do something that contradicts the laws, they are free from punishment. They look at themselves and believe they are above the law.

There are people that are above laws; there are people that intentionally killed their fellow citizens; yet, nothing is done to these people, the laws failed to work against them, no court case.
There is a man in my community, his name is Senator Stephen Adesayan, he is a wealthy man. He spent 8 years as a senator in my state. He is well known man in my society; he has used his political power to bring the change to his senatorial district. He had three kids and all his kids were abroad, they only come home during certain festivals in my community.

There was a day, he had a clash with a lower-class citizen called Gabriel in the community. According to what I heard, Gabriel was his anti-party, he is not supporting him for any reason because he expected Senator Stephen to bring more changes than what they are in the society. Mr. Gabriel always wanted his society to develop more the way it was: therefore, he advocates for change in society. Mr. Gabriel was appointed as the campaign chairman for his party which was the other party.
We only have two major parties ruling the state and the country; these two parties are the strongest parties in local, state and federal levels. Gabriel was appointed as chairman of the campaign for one of the strongest parties. Since they are from the same community, Mr. Gabriel knew his weakness of Senator Adesanya Stephen, he was using his weakness to campaign just as the way democratic is. It is part of the game to use opponent weakness to campaign against him. Mr. Gabriel was not the first person to do that.

Senator Adesanya Stephen has the potential to become the next senate president if he wins the general election. This made him find any means to win the generation election.

Mr. Gabriel was assassinated in his house; one of the Assassin was captured that night by police men and was taken to police station.

After thorough investigation, the policemen were able to catch the other two assassins; and it was confirmed that Senator Adesanya sent those assassins to him that night.

When he knew that there was nothing he could do, he was caught red-handed. He used his position to convince D.P.O. People were thinking that the case would be taken to court. Nothing was heard again about the incidence the moment it was known that Senator Adesanya was the man that sent assassins to him.

After a few months, the three assassins were released from detention, and they were no longer found in the community.
There is no court case, the case ended at that point.
I thought the laws are for all human beings; it is like there are people that are above the laws. When they are found guilty, the laws do not work against them.
I sometime thought that is it not the same laws that applied to someone who stole food just because he was hungry; yet, they called him a thief and sent him to prison.
I believe if a common man does the same thing that senator Adesanya Stephen did, he would have ended up in prison or probably being killed by law.

I came to realize how power, position and affluence play an important role in our laws which are not supposed to be like that.
According to laws, the assassinators and Senator Adesanya Stephen should have taken to court, the laws would have put justice to it. The government should have done something to make sure to punish the offenders because a murder case is a government case. Since the case was reported to the police station and the offenders were caught, I was expecting the government to take over the case.
This is called absence of right to the deceased family; the case closed and nothing was heard about the case again.

I called it absence of right: it was a right thing to take this man and the assassinators to court, and sentence them to life imprisonment; but the reverse was the case. Senator Stephen is enjoying his life with his family here, even preparing to contest again while the deceased family lost him forever.

I was fortunate to go to some prisons in my state, where we gave food and clothes to some of these prisoners; I have heard stories from some of these prisoners how their rights were trampled which made them end up in prison. Some of them were wrongly accused and guilty of the offense they are suffering from.

In conclusion, millions of people are deprived of their rights- right to their properties, health, money and children end up becoming guilty of their rights.

I stand up for success, and success is not achieved by merely making mouth, No room for laziness, no room for idleness.
Thank you for reading my post.

Like am confused seems the upper class citizens are above the law as they get away easily with offense but the lower class citizens are being punished even when they are on their right.

We need good governance and we also need to love one another just like ourselves.

That is the case. There are people that can't be questions which are those first-class citizen which ought not be.
The easily get away but the law is firm on middle and lower class.

Once you have money you automatically outgrow the law, you can now decide who is wrong and who is right.
