Nigerian parents, John and Linda Burke-Monerville, are demanding justice for the murder of their three sons in London, United Kingdom.

The couple lost the latest to an attack in Barnet last month. David, 38, was stabbed to death in a fight.

David’s brother, Trevor, had first lost his life in 1994 after being attacked by five men, before another of his siblings, Joseph, was killed in Hackney in 2013.

The family had previously sent Joseph and his twin Jonathan, the only surviving son, to boarding school in Nigeria to keep them away from crime.

According to the family, none of them have ever been in trouble with the police.

The parents spoke with UK’s The Guardian according to a report by Daily Mail, saying the latest murder has been like ‘a terrible dream’ for them.

“I was a teacher and always taught my children the value of education. I don’t understand why this keeps happening to us… Why can’t we have peace? Why couldn’t our children be allowed to grow up like other children?” Mrs Burke-Monerville said.

David had been campaigning for justice over the deaths of his brothers, whose killers have still not been found.

At the time of his death, David, a father of two boys, had just begun a new job, one of two positions he worked to take care of his family.

Three men have been charged with aggravated burglary over his death and the family hopes they will finally see one of their sons’ killers brought to justice.

A Lagos-based man, Mathew Isichei Chukwuebuka, has narrated how he mysteriously found himself in Ibadan, Oyo State, after answering a phone call from a father and son kidnap gang.

The victim told the Lagos State Police Command that he was called through his phone and doesn’t know how he got to Ibadan. Mathew said upon his arrival, he was given something from a black pot to eat, causing him to lose his senses.

Meanwhile, the police command has arrested two suspected kidnappers, Thoa Akorede and Alhaji Muhibudeen Akorede, who abducted him.

The victim was ordered to surrender his phone to them and the phone was programmed to reject any incoming calls except the only line that they were demanding ransom through.

Chukwuebuka told the police that his abductors collected all the money in his possession and were demanding for more. He said they also took him to an ATM point where they withdrew the sum of N10,000 from his account.

They demanded a ransom of N30,000,000 to be paid into the victim’s bank account. He was detained in their custody for a period of 9 days without being fed.
