The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, on Tuesday paid a condolence visit to the family of the late Favour Ikechukwu, who was gang-raped to death by some unscrupulous elements on Wednesday September 30 this year at 8:30pm at Olanrewaju Street, Ejigbo area of the state.
The CP, who delivered the condolence message to the parent of the deceased on behalf of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Muhammed Adamu, assured the family that the Nigeria Police would do the needful to apprehend every culprit in the barbaric act and get justice for Favour.
Odumosu, while promising the family of police’s constant support, directed the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Criminal Investigation Department, DCP Yetunde Longe, who accompanied him, to deploy additional detectives from her office to go after the fleeing culprits and subject them prosecution as soon as possible.
In another development, the Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu, seized the opportunity to address the residents of Ejigbo Local Council Development Authority (LCDA) in Lagos State and commissioned the refurbished and newly constructed office complex at the Divisional Headquarters Ejigbo.
The complex was refurbished and some new offices were built by the Chief Executive Officer of Grooming International Centre, Dr Godwin Nwabunka, who described his gesture as a reflection of the Community Policing agenda of the IGP with a view to achieving effective policing of Lagos State and Nigeria at large.
Reacting to the beefing up of security measures in the community, the Chairman Ejigbo LCDA, Oloyede Monsuru Obe, donated two Toyota Siena buses to Ejigbo Division to boost its operational engagements and provide adequate security for all residents in the LGA.
Senior officers, who accompanied the Odumosu, are: the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Rapid Response Squad, DCP Tunji Disu; Area Commanders of Area D, Mushin, Area B, Apapa, Area F, Ikeja, Area M, Idimu, Area E, Festac, and some DPOs around the areas, and the Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State, SP Olumuyiwa Adejobi.
