POLICE ACCUSED OF LEADING ARMED HOODLUMS TO TAKE OVER LAND WITHOUT COURT ORDER
IN LAGOS

LAGOS – Armed hoodlums suspected to be land grabbers over the weekend invaded
Okun Ajajh area of Lagos State, shooting sporadically in a bid to forcefully
take over a large portion of land in the com­munity, Daily Independent
investigation revealed.

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.

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.
