The hoodlums, who were allegedly led by a certain Akogun Okukosi were said to be assisted by armed policemen. The action caused serious panic in the Lagos community as they brandished assorted charms and amulets. MEDICAL CONSULTANTS REVEALED HOW MEN CAN NATURALLY AND PERMANENTLY CURE POOR ERECTION, SMALL AND SHAMEFUL MANHOOD, AND INFERTILITY ISSUES WITHOUT SIDE EFFECTS. STOP THE USE OF HARD DRUG FOR SEX! IT KILLS!!!.. After the shootings, which reportedly lasted for over one hour, the hoodlums erected signposts, indicating that they had taken over the large expanse of land. The signposts had inscription boldly written as: “Possession taken today 30/07/21” These were also written on the walls of the buildings on the land without citing any suit number from any court to back the possession order. Meanwhile, when contacted, Muyiwa Adejobi, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Lagos State Command, in reaction said he was not aware of the operations by policemen. Also, one of the law firms included on the signpost, Thomas Orogan and Co, has dissociated itself from the invasion. ‒‒:‒‒ / ‒‒:‒‒ Barrister Orogan claimed he was not contacted before his law firm was included in the signpost, saying that he had directed the invaders to remove his name from the signpost.

POLL Counsel to Winhomes Global Services Limited, one of the owners of the land, Bolanle Olagbani, reacting, said, “I am surprised at the whole thing. There is no any ongoing case on the land. There is no suit number on the signposts and notices that they erected on the land.” The counsel has therefore sent a petition to the Attorney General of Lagos State on what he described as “land grabbing, threat to life, conduct likely to cause breach of public peace and breakdown of law and order.” The petition to the Lagos Attorney General, made available to Daily Independent reads, “We are solicitors to Winhomes Global Services Limited (hereinafter referred to as our client) and we have its instructions to write you. Our client is a reputable real estate company recognised both at home and abroad in the real estate business for conforming with international best practices in its real estate transactions. “Our client is the bona fide owner of 17 hectares of land at Okun Ajah bought from the principal members of the Odewale Agbationika Family (parcel D’) of Okun Ajah and another 10 hectares of land purchased from the Etisalat multipurpose co-operative society both covered by Certificate of Occupancy No.69/69/200AC and governors consent dated May 10, 2014 respectively. Our client also bought other properties from separate individual families and individuals estimated at about 7 hectares and also covered by Lagos State Certificate of Occupany No. 69/69/2006AC.” .The lawyer added, “Our clients were in effective and peaceful possession of the aforementioned properties until a few months ago when one Saheed Olukosi stormed our clients property on behalf of Charles Oghor and Andrew Archer in the company of about 25 persons who can only be described as hoodlums, miscreants, onyabo’s and ajangungbale’s to physically and forcefully dispossess our clients of the bona fide ownership of its land using the name of Late Efunroye Tinubu/Adamakin Inv. & Works LTD who have no Court Judgement in their favour and no valid or legal allocation of land from the Lagos State.” “Saheed Olukosi was armed with a double barelled gun, whilst others with him had cutlasses, axes, locally made pistols and wooden clubs with protruding nails which they used to chase our clients staff and workers off the land,” the lawyer alleged. He further alleged, “Saheed Olukosi was firing shots at random and into the air until the men of the mobile police force intervened by arresting some of the hoodlums while Saheed Olukosi jumped into the bush and escaped.” The petition further stated, “Charles Oghor and Andrew Archer using the auspices of Saheed Olukosi has illegally dispossessed our client of about 3 hectares of its land as we speak.” “Our clients have no peace as Saheed Olukosi, Charles Oghor and Andrew Archer have also threatened to send hired killers to eliminate our clients managing director hence this petition, “the lawyer alleged. “We urge you to kindly use your good offices to direct the Lagos State Task Force on Land Grabbers to investigate and bring Saheed Olukosi, Charles Oghor and Andrew Archer and their cohorts to justice swiftly. Yours faithfully,” the lawyer pleaded. Meanwhile, the image maker in charge of the state Police Command, Muyiwa Adejobi, denied being aware of the operation by the policemen. by Taboolaby Taboola Sponsored LinksSponsored Links Promoted LinksPromoted Links You May Like Prostate Help Urologist: Try This Trick For Enlarged Prostate (Watch)Prostate Help Undo BuzzFond This Photo Of Meghan Markle's Wedding Is Not Edited.
