The Lagos State Police command has described as false and a complete misrepresentation of the facts, a video circulated on the social media in respect of an Okada rider said to have been chased to his death by a Police officer.

The spokesman of the command, DSP Bala Elkana who stated this in a statement in Lagos yesterday said that “The fact is that on 8th, May 2019 at about 6.05am, the Police at Ago Okota Police Station heard a loud sound few meters away from the station and rushed out to ascertain what was going on.

“They found a motorcyclist lying down in the pool of his own blood with his motorcycle on the ground. The victim was taken to the hospital but eventually died. On inquiries from eye witnesses around the scene, it was gathered that the motorcyclist was involved in a fatal accident with a vehicle along Ago Palace way.

“An eye witness known as Mr. Adedayo Benson stated that this morning, he was standing in front of century hotel and saw the okada man, who was riding on a high speed ran into a road bump/speed breaker and suddenly applied his break but was hit by a Camry car which was driving  behind. That the driver of the Camry ran before the arrival of the Police.

“Investigation into the accident is ongoing to track and apprehend the driver of the Camry vehicle with a view of bringing him to justice”.
