Lagos police bid officer okada riders lynched farewell
The Lagos police command has honored the late CSP Kazem Abonde with a colourful parade at the state’s police command’s headquarters in Ikeja.
The parade first took place in Lagos before his remains were transported to Baale Abode’s compound, Ona Ara LGA, Oyo.
The late Abonde, a qualified lawyer, was lynched by a mob of okada riders which fought back the Lagos Task Force arresting riders along major motorways in the state Sept 23.
Abonde was preparing to bow out from the Force in 2022, after which he planned to open a law firm.
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu assured that the perpetrators will face justice.
“Such display of savagery as the one in which CSP Abonde died will not be allowed no matter the circumstances. The law is there for us all, should there be need to redress any perceived wrongdoing.
“Citizens who take the law into their own hands are promoters of jungle justice, which will not be allowed to take root in our dear Lagos”, the governor vowed.
