Lagos Police Launch Manhunt for Suspect in Brutal Ajah Murder

The Nigeria Police Force has declared 30-year-old Iroegbu Alexandra Chisom, also known as “Biggy” or “Omoba Salvage,” wanted for murder and conspiracy following the alleged killing of his friend at a hotel in Lekki-Ajah, Lagos.

Police sources said the incident occurred at Pearl Service Apartment, where the victim, identified as Mr. Olusanya, was reportedly lured under false pretences before being fatally stabbed. Authorities allege the attack was premeditated and motivated by greed, with the suspects seizing the victim’s cash, high-end musical equipment, and vehicle.

The Lagos State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, has obtained a warrant of arrest from the Federal High Court and warned that Chisom is considered armed and extremely dangerous. He is described as an Igbo man, approximately 1.82 metres tall, heavily built, with a dark complexion, oval face, thick lips, and a limp in one leg. His last known address is 23 Road X Close, Block 1, Flat 3, Area 1, FESTAC Town, Lagos.

Police have urged the public not to approach Chisom but to immediately report any information to the nearest police station or SCID Panti. A reward has been offered for tips leading to his capture, though details remain undisclosed.

This tragic event highlights ongoing concerns about cult-related violence and rising criminal activities in Lagos, particularly in the Lekki-Ajah corridor, where seemingly friendly interactions can turn deadly over material gains.

The victim’s family is mourning the loss, describing Olusanya as a promising individual whose life was cut short by betrayal. Meanwhile, residents in Ajah and surrounding areas have been put on high alert as the manhunt intensifies.
