Bolanle Raheem: Lagos CP orders transfer of all police at Ajah station

The Lagos State Police Command has transferred all its personnel at the Ajah police station where two Nigerians were murdered by some of its officers in December 2022.

Spokesman for the Lagos police, Benjamin Hundeyin, disclosed this on Monday in a series of tweets, adding the Lagos Police Commissioner, Abiodun Alabi, gave the order.

“The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Abiodun Alabi, fdc has already effected the transfer out of ALL personnel of the division, with replacement from other divisions. This would fully materialise in a couple of days,” Hundeyin tweeted.

The development is coming days after Drambi Vandi, an assistant superintendent of police attached to the Ajiwe police station, was nailed in the shooting incident in the Ajah area that led to the death of Bolanle Raheem, a lawyer.

The incident sparked widespread criticism, while the Lagos State government filed a one-count charge of unlawful killing against Vandi.

Subsequently, the officer was remanded at the Ikoyi correctional centre pending legal advice from the state directorate of public prosecution (DPP).

Vandi has also been suspended by the Police Service Commission (PSC).
