The Lagos State Police Command has declared Abiodun Ariori, Chief Executive Officer of Prosperous Ariori Golden Venture Limited, wanted over the alleged k!lling of three people during a violent land dispute in Lagos on Wednesday
The spokesperson for the command, Benjamin Hundeyin, who disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday, revealed that a police officer also sustained severe injuries in the clash, which broke out in the Owode Onirin area.
“In the course of the preliminary investigation and prima facie evidence available, one Abiodun Ariori, CEO of Prosperous Ariori Golden Venture Limited, is connected to the deadly clash between the traders and the land grabbers.
“He is hereby declared wanted by the Lagos State Police Command, as all efforts to effect his arrest and bring him to justice have so far proved abortive. It is very clear that he has gone into hiding,” Hundeyin stated.
He added that Ariori’s photograph and last known address in Egbeda had been circulated, urging the public to provide useful information.
“If seen, he should be arrested and handed over to the nearest police station, or call the Lagos State Police Command control room.
Wherever he is, he should turn himself in at the nearest police station,” Hundeyin added.
