Tuesday, March 11, 2025 - The Ogun State Police Command has launched a manhunt for a suspect identified simply as Amosun, who allegedly st@bbed a 37-year-old man, Tunde Majekodunmi, to d3ath during a birthday party in the Arinu area of Iju-Ota.
The incident occurred on Friday night, March 7, 2025.
Spokesperson for the command, Omolola Odutola, who confirmed the
incident to Punch on Monday, stated
that Majekodunmi was fatally st@bbed during an altercation with the brother of
the fleeing suspect.
The PPRO stated that the victim’s younger brother, Yusuf, reported the
incident at the Onipanu Police Division around 8:45 p.m. on Friday.
The victim had attended the birthday celebration when he got into a
dispute with a man simply known as Toheeb, popularly known as “Tabaiye.”
It was gathered that the altercation escalated when Toheeb’s elder
brother, Amosun, allegedly broke a bottle and st@bbed Majekodunmi in the lower
part of his left arm, inflicting a severe wound.
It was also revealed that other guests and eyewitnesses rushed the
victim to two different hospitals, but he was reportedly denied treatment by
medical staff.
The police revealed that Majekodunmi was later confirmed d3ad on arrival
by medical personnel at Ota General Hospital, the third medical facility he was
taken to after the incident.
“Our men visited the scene, took photographs, and transferred the body
to the hospital morgue for autopsy. The suspect, Amosun, remains at large, and
authorities have launched a manhunt to apprehend him. The case is under
investigation by the Divisional Crime Branch (DCB), while efforts to track down
the suspect continue,” Odutola added.
