ReplyDeleteI so detest whites...
Call me a racist, don't forget to screw your opinion too.
They are so despicable.
I live in london and grew up close to hackney and i can tell you clapton is full of jamo's and af's. white pple are scared to go or live in hackney. My take is that he was attack or robbed by another black person. Most likely a crack head!
DeleteRip sir
Shut up! What do u know!
DeleteRIP. So sad
ReplyDeleteIts actually a lot less now. Racism has reduced drastically. At least his killers will be caught. His family will be taken care of.
ReplyDeleteThe lots of white aint colour blind, they go inhuman on we the blacks. Its so not fair. May the late Mr. Bakre's soul RIP.
ReplyDeleteStella he is/was my brother. He was Killed on his BIRTHDAY Stella. All because he SAVED a woman from getting robbed. The urchins were livid with anger because of this, and as my brother walked home to be with his kids and wife to celebrate his day, they followed suit and cussed him. He didn't answer them, they were furious, and they went ahead to punch him. He fell hitting his head on the pavement. He lost his memory instantly, that was it. He was never to come alive again. HE DIED. All we want is JUSTICE!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI speak on behalf of my siblings and the entire Yesufu! God bless you Stella
Na there black brother of Nigerian descent killed someone first
ReplyDeleteOh dear! But why?
ReplyDeleteHis soul rest in peace, and God gives his family the fortitude to bear the loss.
ReplyDeleteClapton is a very dangerous zone. Glorified ghetto. The Jewish people living in the area just makes it a little quiet. The crime there is crazy, carried out by mostly jamo and East African teenagers. So sad! Rip
ReplyDeleteWicked heartles racists.Rot in hell fools.RIP may god protect us
ReplyDeleteIs this some kind of Retaliation agaisnt Nigerians cos me no understand the attacks on Nigerians in UK
ReplyDeleteI agree. Racism still exist. Rip mr Yesufu. I can't wait to come back to my beloved naija. I started a job last week Monday and by Wednesday some whitey girl has written a negative report about me that I had to face a panel today. Thank God, I was able to defend myself and was vindicated of all accusations. If to say i be swegbe na, na so dem 4 use oyibo racist sense for me.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

Madam Stella don't be suprised that crime might be black on black o
ReplyDeleteAs racist as British oyibo s are you will hardly find them going about to attack black people or other minorities they can talk but they seldom follow through
The attacks on the mosque and the Asian man was by two Ukrainian students who have since been arrested and charged to court.the first time I got robbed was by a black guy in eltham when they snatched my shiny Nokia 8850 second time was also a black guy NigeriAn who took my wallet with a gun in the toilet of a Nig restaurant in plumstead
But Stella ur point is moot. More black people kill blacks than white
ReplyDeleteBlacks also attack blacks.
ReplyDeleteRIP sir, call me a racist, I fucking hate whites with a passion... Those guys are too proud n black ppl be treating them like some kind of demi gods... #Bullshit.... Kells
ReplyDeleteRip
ReplyDeleteThe irony of this matter is that the young lads that killed my brother are teenagers, 18-19. They know his son in the area but they didn't realize the man they attacked was his dad. It happened on the corner of the street from where they live.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason Bakre didn't give a fight back is because he saw them as young lads his son's age. But for the timely intervention of the cops, Bakre's son was ready to give the hoodlums a fight back...which would have resulted a racial/deadly conflicts/blood shed in that community, because one of the perpetrators is caucasian.
They tried to appease his son just before the cops swung in to arrest them. They said they didn't know that Bakre was his father!!
Did they have to know him NOT to have attacked? so what if he was just a random passerby? is it justified to attack a person who sought for the safety of a fellow helpless being? This man didn't even attack them or call the police after they tried to rob that woman! Did he have to die or get hit at all? He was ok with the harassment because he knew that he had saved the woman from them.. but alas!!!! If it was a caucasian that got killed in the UK in this manner,we will not hear the end of it. Therefore this matter will NOT rest until justice prevails! There's a preliminary hearing next week, and all we want is for JUSTICE to prevail! Please pray for my family at this very difficult time. Bless you! Thanks SDK.
You are not just racist...i think you dumb...i bet you probably be asking yourself why what you pray or hope for isnt playing out for you...
ReplyDelete@luca gbammmmmmm u are very right. black to black, Madness... RIP sir

ReplyDeleteppl should note dat for d fact dat a black man is killed in a white man country doesnt call for racism
mostly a black man kills a fellow black man most times..
d issue hear is crime n not racism.
tackle d main issue without sentiments
Regardless of the attackers colour, our brother didn't deserve to die.... He was attacked on his 47th birthday cos he was trying to be a peacemaker.... All we want is JUSTICE and nothing more. RIP bro

Diran Yesufu,
ReplyDeleteMy condolences to you and your family at this sad time. May the LORD grant your family the fortitude to bear the loss of your dear brother.
May he rest in peace and condolences to his family.
ReplyDeleteI hope the Voice Newspaper will carry this story. To his family here, look for Dianne Abbott the MP for Hackney. I know she's not a fan of Nigerians but drop a letter for her in the Borough. You never know.
Stella, I still find London very safe. Safety usually depends on different boroughs.
I know this is a long time after poor Bakre was killed but I have only just come across the news. I went to school with Bakre in the 70's and I knew Taj too and Rasaki a little bit (sorry if spellings wrong) Even back then Bakre was a gentleman - kind, generous and brave - I looked up to him as a fine role model and aspired to be as a good a person as he was. I am so sorry he is no longer with us.
ReplyDeleteI know Bakre too as well as his step sister Sumbo, Taju and Rasaki when they were living in Tooting Broadway and their late Dad Lawyer Yesufu. Cant belived he was murdered on his birthday by two teenagers. The colour doesnt matter and is so scary and sad that hes gone just like that. I wish to know what happened to the teenagers that committed such a terrible crime
DeleteWere they sentenced to a very long time in prison or charged with manslaughter. Really curious to know the outcome if justice was served
Rest in peace Bakre
