The Baale of Temidire Alagbado, Chief Nojeem Abioye, his son, and nine others have been arrested and are being interrogated at the State Department of Criminal Investigation and Intelligence (SDCII) Yaba, in connection with the murder of Alhaji Olatunji Rasaq, a.k.a Tunji Alaso who was brutally killed Monday last week in Alagbado area of Lagos.
It was learned that the victim who is popularly known as Alhaji Gay was murdered during a protest by landlords and residents in the community, led by Abioye, over allegations of land grabbing, and that the protest was peaceful until Alhaji arrived the venue and began to record events on video.
The protesters, rushed towards him and he ordered his driver to speed off, hitting one Mr. Raheem, alias Denge. In his defence, Chief Abioye disclosed to Vanguard:
“The community organised the protest because of the activities of Tunji Alaso.
The purpose of the conference was to create awareness in the area and to tell the world that Tunji has been threatening the peace of the community with his thugs as he was selling off people’s land which were vacant and even those that are under construction.
It was a peaceful protest until Tunji came and distrupted the protest with his thugs.”
Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, revealed that 10 suspects, including Chief Abioye, were in Police custody at SDCII, Yaba, adding that investigations were on.
