Political and human rights activist, Aisha Yesufu has reacted to the murder of Mile 12 Branch Chairman of the Lagos State Park Management Committee, Sulaimon Lawal, popularly known as Arikuyeri.
National Daily reports that there was pandemonium on Sunday afternoon as suspected thugs murdered the Mile 12 Park chairman.
In a video circulating the internet, Arikukeyi can be seen laying on the ground while he was been beaten and macheted to death by the thugs.
It was gathered that suspected loyalists and colleagues of Arikuyeri went on a rampage at Mile 12, Ketu Owode Onirin and other parts of the community attacking residents and passers-by.
The battle over supremacy in motor parks around the Mile 12 area of the state resulted in an exchange of gunfire between the warring factions.
In a tweet via her Twitter handle on Tuesday morning, Yesufu described the death of the park chairman as barbaric, asking God to rest his soul.
She wrote: “Innalillahi wa inna ilayhi rajiun. What manner of barbarism is this?”
