SAD! Ex-Big Brother Nigeria contestant, Khafi's brother shot dead in London

The death of a 20-year-old man in London has left a controversial Met police officer who appeared on Nigerian Big Brother heartbroken.

Alexander Kareem, 20, was shot near his family home in Shepherd’s Bush, West London, on Monday June 8. The victim is the brother of 29-year-old Khafi Kareem whose appearance on Nigerian big Brother sparked controversy last summer after her bosses denied her permission to go on the show.
A post-mortem concluded that Alexander was killed by gunshots to his chest and abdomen while he was walking home after visiting a shop around 12.40am.
It is reported that Alexander screamed ‘help me’ as he lay on the ground before a passer-by attempted to perform CPR. Paramedics arrived to treat Alexander, but he was pronounced dead shortly after. His sister Khafi Kareem, who lives in Hammersmith, West London, became a social media star after spending 77 days in the Nigerian big Brother house last year. PC Kareem was evicted from the show in which she formed a relationship with Ekpata Gedoni, 31, and allegedly had sex.
The Met publicity poster girl now has 1.2million followers in Instagram and is on restricted duties while the Met’s Directorate of Professional Standards investigates her controversial appearance on the reality television show.
The investigation into the shooting of Alexander Kareem is the 50th murder probe in the capital this year
A 69-year-old resident in Shepherds Bush, who did not want to be named, said she was laying in bed at about 12:30am when she heard 'two or three' gunshots before Mr Kareem was found
A white Range Rover (pictured), seen in the area before the shooting and later found burned out nearby, is being traced by police as 'a key line of inquiry'
The Met police officer, who lives in Hammersmith, West London, was a poster girl for the police force in some of their publicity shots
The Met has previously said: ¿The Met does not support the officer's appearance nor does she represent the Met whilst appearing on the show'
Khafi Kareem now has 1.2million followers in Instagram and is on restricted duties while the Met¿s Directorate of Professional Standards investigates her controversial appearance on the reality television show
A post-mortem concluded that Alexander was killed by gunshots to his chest and abdomen while returning home from a shop at around 12.40am
Rest in peace Alexander Kareem!
