Will Justice Fawehinmi rest in Peace? MY ENCOUNTER WITH LATE JUSTICE RASHEED FAWEHINMI! GBOBO FAWEHINMI LIBRARY, LAJE ROAD, ONDO If the criteria of a dead man to rest in peace in heaven is his positive contributions, a high percentage of good deeds on earth over his misdeeds, then Justice Rasheed Fawehinmi, the great son of the greatest ALIJONU of Ondo fame will certainly rest in peace and be with Allah in Aljaena!
