The Lagos State Police Command has given a marching order for the arrest of a motorcyclist, who allegedly killed one Oke Misbau, the Deputy Chairman, Tricycle Owners and Operators’ Association of Nigeria (TOOAN) in Ejigbo.
The yet to be identified motorcyclist was said to have stabbed Musbau around 8:30pm on Friday at Iyana Ejigbo, during an altercation.
It was learnt that the motorcyclist who was driving against traffic had brushed Musbau’s tricycle, when a argument soon ensued and the motorcyclist, said to be a northerner, grabbed a knife and stabbed the tricyclist before fleeing the scene.
It was gathered the motorcyclist’s action caused an ethnic clash in the area as Yoruba youths went after those they perceived to be Hausa but the police swiftly controlled the situation.
Musbau who was rushed to the hospital was gathered to have gave up the ghost while receiving treatment as a result of excessive loss of blood.
The police spokesman, Olumuyiwa Adejobi , who confirmed the incident said the deceased was 55-year-old.
He said: “The suspect has fled. We will arrest him with the help of his association. The CP has given a marching order to arrest him and has told the Commander, Area D Mushin, to make sure adequate security is provided in the area to forestall any future occurrence.”
