…Activist Segalink Calls For Arrest Of Culprits, Says Lagos Will Not Accept Impunity

…Urges Sanwo-Olu To Put Framework In Place To Regulate Okada Operations

It has been confirmed that a mob of commercial motorcycle drivers popularly known as Okada riders on Friday set ablaze a young man simply identified as David Sunday in Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos.

It is not clear yet the reason for the jungle justice.

This is coming on the heels of the gruesome killing of Deborah Samuel, a student of Shehu Shagari College of Education in Sokoto by a mob for alleged blasphemy.

An activist and security enthusiast, Segun Awosanya popularly called Segalink confirmed the Lekki incident, saying Lagos would not accept such culture of impunity.

“The storm will not hesitate to erode the development and civility in our community/society but it demands our commitment to counter its action with intentional preparedness towards ensuring its agenda does not come to pass at our expense.

“This is calling the attention of The Lagos State Government, Mr Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and the Commissioner of Nigeria Police Force Lagos, to the disturbing news about the murderous action of the illegal alien mob, riding bikes/Okada across major parts of the state.

“We just confirmed the report of a case involving the lynching and setting ablaze of a young man (David Sunday) in Lekki Phase 1, about two (2) days ago (on Friday the 13th of May 2022) along Admiralty way by a mob of Okada men as reported to the DPO of Maroko Police station, who I just got off the phone with.

“The Residents of LAGOS STATE will NOT accept, normalize or reinforce the culture of impunity/JungleJustice and therefore call for immediate action of the Governor to nip this menace in the bud, while ensuring the murderers of David Sunday are brought to book,” Awosanya said.

Speaking further, he said a policy must be designed towards the regularization of Okada Operations with adequate registration, identification and modalities to trace each rider or group found wanting being put in place.

“Beyond the action of the State Governor, who I strongly believe will not sacrifice the safety of Lagosians for the election that is upon us, we implore the Police AIG, CP, Zonal Commander, Area Commanders, Rapid Response, Lagos State Taskforce and DPOs to cooperate on this matter for the safety of all in the State.

“Insecurity is blighting the state & it is time to ACT collectively! #JusticeForDavid
