On the 3rd of September 2020, music producer and songwriter, Akhigbe Sunday popularly known as Santaboya and upcoming music artist, Ajibawo Lawal a.k.a.Young P, were found dead and rough handled in a studio (Coded Studio) located somewhere around AIT road, Alagbado, Lagos State.
Moments after arriving the scene,members of the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) took charge of the situation and related to everyone that they both died of generator smoke (carbon monoxide). However, after making away with the two corpses, the studio owner was then arrested as suspect to the death of the both parties.
After somedays, the case was transferred from Alagbado police station, AIT road, to Panti State CID, Yaba. Following the transfer of the case to Panti, the suspect was released as the officer in charge of the case told the family that there was no evidence and it was unlawful to detain anyone without a concrete evidence.
Having freed the arrested suspect, the NPF refused to give the family of the deceased the corpse of their beloved ones. Both families have done affidavits, as requested by the police, saying that they are uninterested in making a case with anyone and just wanted to lay their loved ones to rest. But even til this time, the NPF has refused to released the corpse to the families and many are yet to lay an eye on the remains of these individuals.
Please, I plead to all well meaning individuals out there, is this right?
Is this the job of the Nigerian Police Force? Is this lawfully right? Sey na Nigerian Police work be this?
It's been approximately three weeks now, no autopsy has been carried out, mortuary fee keeps increasing and the police said the family would be the ones to pay, yet they are unwilling to release the corpses of both deceased parties. On Saturday, 12 September, 2020, Punch newspaper published a tailored and fictitious version of the truth of the story. We don't really know what is going on anymore.
Please I'm calling on every well meaning individuals out there to come to the aid of thesd families as the parents of the both parties are widows and have been continually tossed up and down, back and fro mercilessly by the NPF.
