Court remands ex-Police Inspector Olalekan Ogunyemi charged with murdering Kolade Johnson

O. Salawu, ordered that Ogunyemi be remanded at Ikoyi Prisons pending advice from State Director of Public Prosecutions.

Earlier, the prosecutor, Insp. Kehinde Olatunde, had told the court that the defendant committed the offence on March 31, at 5.10p.m., at Onipetesi Estate, Idi-Mangoro, Lagos.Olatunde said that Ogunyemi used his AK-47 rifle to shoot dead 36-year-old Kolade Johnson. The prosecutor said that the offence contravened the provisions of Section 223 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.Olatunde informed the court that he had a remand application order by the Police to remand the defendant for the next 30 days.Counsel to the defendant, Sola Adeyemi, had urged the court to instead remand the defendant for the next 14 days as against the application of the prosecutor.

Magistrate Salawu granted the application of the prosecutor and ordered 30-day remand and adjourned the case until May 6.reports that Kolade, father of one, was shot dead by Ogunyemi, who served in the Anti-Cultism Unit of the Lagos State Police Command.

Having dismissed and preparing to prosecute him, one should expect that the NigeriaPolice take steps to compensate the bereaved family. I won't bring the dead back but will at least give his young family decent start in life.
