Shopkeepers in Chatsworth Road, Lower Clapton, told the Standard on Saturday how they feared for their lives after hearing Fadairo being gunned down in the street outside.

Speaking at the family home the following day, his grieving sister said:
     "He was a lovely boy – he didn’t deserve this."
A family friend added:
     "Moses was telling me he was trying to do something good with his life, that he
was going to university. It’s a tragic loss of life. It’s more children now who will
grow up without a father. The killing has got to stop."

Another friend described Mr Fadairo, whose twin sons were born in January, as “a warm-hearted guy” who was “generous and kind”
