The deceased’s neighbour, Qudus Onileere, expressed concern that the police were yet to apprehend the killers, about two weeks after the incident. Onileere said during the attack, one of the two security guards on the premises was tied up. Another, Abdulkadir Ibrahim, who had been sleeping, woke up and attempted to run for his life but was shot dead by the gunmen.“The incident has been reported at the Ipakodo Police Division. The Hausa community, to which the deceased belonged, took his corpse away and buried it at the cemetery at Gberigbe, Ikorodu, on the same day, according to Islamic injunctions,” he said.
According to him, the Divisional Police Officer of Ipakodo only found out about the attack days after the body was buried, and that no autopsy was carried out.
