Policemen has been arrested over the killing of students at Badagry

Gist:According to Punch, the policemen who just stood
there and watched while two young men
were beaten to death on Sunday July 21 in Badagry,
have been arrested. The police officers, Inspector
Adefemi Ashogbon and Sergeant John Sonayon of the
Badagry Police Division were arrested on Friday
August 2nd. Sergeant Sonayon was the police officer
that interviewed the victims during their torture.
Eight other people have also been arrested over the
lynching.
Lagos state Commissioner of Police, Umar Manko
said,
“The Divisional Police Officer did not present the matter
to us the way it happened. When we started asking
questions, we discovered that the two people, who were
killed, were not armed robbers contrary to what the DPO
told us. When we saw the video clips and watched the way
those boys were killed, we told ourselves that we would
be failing in our duties if we fail to bring everyone
involved to justice.”
The sooner they start giving long prison sentences to
people who lynch or people who are even found on the
scene of a lynching...just looking sef...the safer our
family and friends will be.
