Ever since the video was made public, a few people
have been working behind the scenes to find
the men who did this. Some sort of
breakthrough has been achieved with the
involvement of the Chairman of Ejigbo Local
Council of Lagos. He's worked his socks off on
this case since some people got in touch with
him.
Find his response after the cut. It's now time to
pile pressure on the Lagos State Govt and the
Lagos State Police...
Kehinde Bamigbetan:
I promised an update in 24 hours: This incident
took place in the central market, Iyana Ejigbo,
Ejigbo LCDA in February 2013. The pepper
sellers normally leave their goods in their stalls.
They returned the next day to discover that
their goods were being stolen. They reported
this to the vigilante they hired to secure the
market. About 6am, the two women were
allegedly caught stealing pepper. They were a
wife and her step-daughter. They lived near the
market with the husband. The husband is said
to be a wine tapper. After the barbaric torture,
both confessed to stealing the pepper and
were let go. However, a few members of the
vigilante feared that the case may spread. And
informed the leadership of the vigilante group.
Those involved were allegedly penalized and
the gang disbanded. The scene was then
converted to shops and rented out. I have
reviewed these with the DPO and both of us
are bothered by the impact of the time lag of
over nine months on investigation. This may
also explain the initial denials by the
stakeholders. We are working on getting the
wine tapper to trace his wife and daughter
involved. If he has not relocated from Ejigbo,
then we have a good chance of retrieving
information and tracking the story.
