39-year-old Adeola Williams, popularly known as Ade Lawyer, has confessed to killing over a hundred people since he started his assassination business over 10-years ago. Ade Lawyer shocked many when he confessed but added that ”now I’m born again.” The 39-year old father of three was recently arrested over the killing of one Ganiyu Ayinla aka Pinero, who during his lifetime was the P.A to Azeez Adekunle Lawal, the National Union of Road Transport Workers chairman in Idumota, Lagos. Williams was arrested by the Inspector General of Police Intelligence Response Team. Speaking on his activities he said; “Assassination has been the source of my livelihood for more than a decade now and I know I have taken many lives that I can’t even count but God knows I am a new person now. “If I get a chance to regain my freedom in this life, I will never go back to crime again. I also advise the millions of youths out there that crime does not pay. I was into crime for over 20 years and despite the risk involved and lack of rest of mind, I have nothing to show for it except the uncompleted three-bedroomed bungalow in Ibadan.
“I have nothing on ground to fall back on despite taking the lives of more than 100 Nigerians as an assassin. May God forgive me.” Williams further revealed he was once nabbed and remanded in Ikoyi prison back in 1998. he had stolen a watch belonging to late fuji musician, Sikiru Ayinde Barrister, at a show in Lagos Island. “A fight broke out when he was about leaving the hall and I found my way to the front where I succeeded in snatching his watch from his wrist. People saw me struggling with his bouncers and the next day, they brought policemen to arrest me in my mother’s house.” When he gained his freedom in 2001, Williams said he went back to being a bus conductor in Ajah. He later joined the NURTW, Ajah Branch, where he was made a park attendant. Williams said he decided to kill Kunle Poly for his refusal to talk to the chairman of the union, Tajudeen Agbede, on his behalf. This pain was from the fact that he was dumped by Agbede after the former emerge as the chairman. “I thought about my predicament because my wife was heavily pregnant and the money I was getting from Oluomo wasn’t enough and I wasn’t ready to use my gun for armed robbery, so I decided to end the life of the man who refused to help me mend my relationship with Agbede.” Upon his arrest for the killing of Kunle, he refused to go down alone and implicated other persons. “I decided to rope in Olorunwa because he was the one who ruined my life. It was my support for him during his fight with MC Oluomo that made me to lose my position at the union. After he was removed from office, he had so much money but he was wasting it on women and movie actors and he refused to help me. “If he had given me good money after he left office, for staking my life for him, I won’t have been roaming about looking for who to kill. I was just so bitter, so I framed him. I made up the story that he paid me N500,000 to kill Kunle Poly and I also lied that I seized his vehicle because he was owing me a balance of N1m.” Williams further said he decided to implicate NURTW chieftain MC Oluomo saying the latter sent him after he refused to help him but never showed up, until he “ decided to come clean and say the truth and give my life to Christ. I also lied earlier that I worked for Prince Kazeem Aletu during the fight between him and Oba Elegushi.” “Though I didn’t know Prince Kazeem before, I have heard his name very well before and I asked for assistance from him several times through somebody who knows him but he refused to help me, and that was why I mentioned his name too. But now I am a born-again Christian and I will always say the truth and stand by the truth.”
