A lawyer Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, SAN has admonished the Lagos state government and the police not to compromise the investigation of the murdered fashion designer, Miss Oluwabamishe Ayanwole.
Adegboruwa tasked the Federal Government and the Inspector General of police, Usman Baba to take over the investigation of the murder case of Oluwabamishe
Recall that Oluwabamishe was murdered after boarding a BRT bus from Chevron bus stop at Ajah,enroute Oshodi in Lagos.
TheNewsGuru.com(TNG) reports the FG and IGP Baba were tasked by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Ebun -Olu Adegboruwa to take over the investigation to guide against a cover up.
Adegboruwa, in a statement stressed that it will be in the interest of the police to come out clean and fetch other fleeing killing squad of the deceased, saying that he smells a rat and a conspiracy to do a cover -up in an attempt to scuttle ongoing investigation with a hurriedly packaged TV interview with the suspect driver.
”Events unfolding concerning the murder of Miss Oluwabamishe Ayanwole are as intriguing as they are worrisome. Following public outcry and media monitoring, the Lagos State Government hurriedly packaged the Bus Rapid Transfer driver for media interview, to give the impression that he was innocent of the crime.
”Some further revelations have now thrown up very serious questions that the Lagos State Government must answer, if it is not covering up this dastardly act of daylight murder.
”In a homicide matter of this magnitude, how can a prime suspect who was declared missing, be handed over to government by the security agencies?
”A video of his initial arrest showed that the driver confessed to having carnal knowledge of the deceased, in very remorseful fashion. He was dressed in shabby and disheveled attire, truly reflecting his fugitive status as of the time of his arrest”.
”Who then packaged a crime suspect, to turn out clean shaven, dressed in specially designed Lagos State Government outfit and now well tutored to claim innocence to set up the cock and bull story of hijack?
”Why was Lagos State Government romancing a murder suspect?
”And why was he paraded on a selected media of TV Continental, over which Lagos State has influence through patronage?
”What is the business of Lagos State in the interrogation of a murder suspect?
The Commissioner of Police had earlier addressed the press to the extent that the suspect had confessed to the crime before Lagos State emerged with the latter James Bond storyline”. He said
Adegorunwa said ,it will be a sad day for humanity in general should the government stoop so low to try to cover up a clear case of murder, just for public relations. He accused governor Sanwo-Olu of being a party to the packaged story being told by the driver, saying it doesn’t add up.
The lawyer said that Lagos state police cannot be trusted to handle the murder case , because it had already surrendered a murder suspect still under investigation to the Lagos state Government for media packaging.
He urged the federal government to take over the investigation of the case to avoid compromise in the Murder case
