A security guard attached to the Bello Folawiyo Government Reserved Area in the Ketu Ikosi area of Lagos, Mr. Odion Aimeyekagbon, has been murdered by some assailants, who invaded the area.

A land grabber, identified simply as Enibalomo, was said to have ordered the hoodlums to attack the guard, who was an employee of Real Striker Security Company.

It was learnt that the guard and his colleague had insisted that he present a gate pass before he could be granted exit from the estate.

PUNCH Metro learnt that Enibalomo, a nephew of a monarch in Lagos, was returning from a hotel around 6pm on September 11, when he was stopped by the security officials.

The suspected kingpin reportedly got angry by the request and called the assailants on the telephone.

Our correspondent gathered that the touts, who were still on the run, stabbed Odion and smashed his head on an iron pillar. The Edo State-born man was said to have been left to die in a pool of blood, while his colleague, Zaka Ajeh, reportedly escaped with some injuries.

PUNCH Metro gathered that Ajeh, who hails from Benue, was bedridden for three days before he was taken to his hometown for proper medical care.

Odion’s brother, Osas Aimeyekagbon, described his killing as gruesome. He said the family were in pains over the loss and urged that justice be given his late brother. He added that the police had not allowed them to see the corpse at the morgue.

He said, “It is unfortunate that my brother died violently in the hand of miscreants. His killer must be made to face the law irrespective of his influence because this is a huge loss. The painful part is that we have not been able to see his corpse. The police only showed us the pictures of the mutilated and bloody corpse taken at the scene of crime. When we demanded that they should take us to the mortuary at Ikorodu where the corpse was deposited, the IPO in charge of the case refused. He insisted that we give him N5,000 before we could see the corpse of our murdered brother.

“I learnt that the leader of the murderers is a well known man in the community.Those area boys stabbed him and hit his head on an iron pillar. The police are telling us that they want the man to report himself to the station.

“Yes, our brother is dead, he cannot be brought back to life, but we do not want this man to just go free without paying for the innocent blood he shed. I want Nigerians to help us out because from all indications, the police want to sweep this murder under the carpet.”

The Acting Chairman of the estate’s Community Development Association, Rev. Bode Oresajo, said he was informed about the incident. He added that the police and the government officials had been notified.

He said, “I was called from the church that day. The crime was reported at the Ketu Police Station. We also wrote a letter to the governor and copied the Chairman, Ikosi-Isheri LCDA. The chairman visited the estate and promised to do something about the incident, but we have not seen any meaningful development.”

The Human Resources Manager of the Real Striker, Mr. Kolawole Dawodu, said the company was not happy with the way the case was being handled by the police.

He said, “We are expecting that the man who led the gang would have been arrested. The case was transferred from Ketu to Area H Command, Ogudu. Now, it is being handled in SCID, Yaba. The police promised to effect arrest within two weeks, but no arrest has been made. This is a case of a man who was murdered in cold blood while he was on his line of duty. The other official has been taken to his town for proper treatment.”

When contacted on the phone to comment on the matter, the Lagos State police spokesperson, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, promised to get back to our correspondent. He had, however, yet to do so as of press time.

The truth is that Lagos is owned and ruled by Area boys. Tinubu is the Area Father. As long as APC remains in power, this kind of things will not stop in Lagos.

Let me join my voice to condemn, or better still criticize this barbaric or inhumane action taken by this uncivilized guy who forcefully terminated the life of the easy going and promising young man. It is coming to a time when people will rise up against this so called rich people who want to act as God here on earth. Let me assured you, the God of vengeance will stand for you. So no matter what the police do or will do, God who is supreme will surely release vengeance on this evil man. RIP the dead. My sincere condolence goes to the family, dont loss faith in God, he is capable to fight for you.

Pendusky, come and pray for your leaders o.

A country that is a shithole.

Complete cesspit.

Its unfortunate nothing will come out of this, the culprit is a royal tout and as such a very important resource of Lagos APC, the case will be covered up, the asshole will only be cautioned in private that is all,the poor Edo gateman should have known he was up against a royal agbero who is one of the prominent owner of Lagos.Sorry to disappoint you all we are about 4 months away from general election,Lagos APC need all their agberos on board so this royal tout will be spared.

The Gruesome murder of my senior brother – Mr odion AIMEYEKAGBON by a Royalty ON THURSDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER, 2014

I want to report the deliberate and gruesome murder of my senior brother - Mr. odion Aimeyekagbon to NairaLanders. He is an employee of REAL STRIKER Security Company based in Oregun road, opposite Alausa bus stop, Ikeja, Lagos.

On Thursday 11th September, 2014 at about 6pm, a man (name yet to be confirmed) who is well known in the community of Ikosi, a relation of the Bale of Ikosi ,drove his car to the main gate of Folawiyo GRA in Ikosi road, beside MR. BIG’s restaurant. my brother who is a security guard on duty with one of his colleagues demanded for gate pass from this man, the man did not have a gate pass, and there is a standing order by the Resident Association of Folawiyo GRA that anyone without a gate pass should not be allowed to pass through the gate.

This man, the murderer! Was not comfortable with the demand from my brother and his colleague, probably because he is the son or brother of the Bale of Ikosi, or because he is an influential man in the community, he felt my brother has embarrassed and insulted him. After much argument and intervention by passers-by, he was allowed to pass the main gate without proper clearance or presentation of gate pass.
Instead of this man to go peacefully, no! He picked his mobile phone and called thugs and “Area Boys”. These hoodlums came with knives and other weapons to beat up my brother and his colleague on duty.

the other guard was lucky to had ran away with injuries inflicted on him, but unfortunately, after severe beating and stabbing, my brother died on the spot at the main gate of Folawiyo GRA where is duty post was.

the painful part is that, we have not been able to see the corpse of my late brother. the police only showed us the pictures of the mutilated and blood cover corpse taken at the crime scene. When we demanded that they should take us to the mortuary at Ikorodu where the police deposited the corpse, the IPO in charge of the case refuses to take us there, except we give him five thousand naira (N5,000) – CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT! Five thousand naira to see the corpse of our murdered brother!

As at the time of writing, the police have not been able to make a single arrest. They only went to arrest innocent members of the community, and later collected money from their relations to bail them.

From the information we gathered ourselves from the crime scene, the murderer is a well known man in the community. The police are telling us that they want the murderer to report himself to the police station.
The company where my brother worked before he died is not helping matters, all they keep telling us is that they are capable of burying my brother whenever we are ready. They claimed that they have capable lawyers, but they have not done anything as regard arresting this murderer.

I earnestly want to plead with Nairalanders to help us in any way they can, especially in sharing and broadcasting this gross injustice that had be perpetrated by a so called ROYALTY of IKOSI.

Just like my late brother, I am a law-abiding citizen of this country. I do not want to take law into my hands. Please brethren, the only way to fight this injustice is by crying out to all of you and to God Almighty to hear my plight.

YES! our brother is dead, he can not be brought back to life, but we do not want this man to just go free without paying for the innocent blood he has shed.

I also want to beg good-spirited Nigerians or lawyers to help us out, because from all indications, the POLICE want to sweep this murder case under the carpet. REAL STRIKER security company is not helping us either, it appeals they are collaborating with the police to cover up this injustice.

Below is my email address. Due to security reasons, I did not post my phone numbers, please drop you number here and I will call you back with a PRIVATE NUMBER to discuses further. You can also send me a mail.

Thank you all for your anticipated assistance.
Regards.
