Naomi Silekunola: Look Beyond Tragic Incident, Tamper Justice With Mercy – Adeniyi Johnson Begs Authorities

Nollywood actor, Adeniyi Johnson, has urged authorities to exercise leniency in handling the case of the ex-wife of the Ooni of Ife, Naomi Silekunola.

Naija News recalls that Naomi had organised an event where a stampede occurred and led to the death of over 30 children.

The police subsequently detained the former queen and others over the tragic incident.

Reacting to the development in a heartfelt post on his Instagram page, Adeniyi extended condolences to the families of the victims and offered prayers for Naomi, acknowledging her pure intentions and charitable spirit.

He commended the people of Ondo State for their generosity and stated that Naomi’s actions mirrored the compassionate values of her community.

The actor also appealed to authorities for leniency, emphasizing the tragic nature of the incident and the goodwill that had inspired it.

He wrote, “First and foremost, condolences to the family of lost ones; no family deserves this kind of pain at this time or any other. I pray the good lord gives you the fortitude to bear the loss and comfort the family!! Amen

“Secondly, My heart and prayers go to @queen_silekunolanaomi_ogunwusi, whose intentions were not to hurt or kill but to give and feed!! This time, too, shall pass, and the God of your good deeds will speak for you, restore you, and bring you back stronger!!!

“We, the people of Ondo state, are known for our kind heartedness and generosity, which is clearly your motive for putting the program together. I pray God to see you through this in time and bring you back stronger!! @queen_silekunolanaomi_ogunwusi.

“Lastly, I know for a fact that the law must be upheld, but we beseech the authorities in charge to temper justice with mercies and look beyond the tragic incident! GOD BLESS NIGERIA”.
