The Lagos judicial panel has awarded the sum of N10 million to the family of late Kolade Johnson.

Johnson was shot during a raid by police officers at Onipetesi area in Lagos, while watching an English premiership match between Tottenham and Manchester United on March 31, 2019.

The incident sparked outrage on social media, after which the police authorities identified Ogunyemi Olalekan, a police inspector, and Godwin Orji, a sergeant, as the officers involved in the shooting

Doris Okuwobi, chairman of the Lagos panel, announced the compensation at the sitting on Friday.

The award sum was received by the mother of the deceased.

Another victim who was compensated was Mr. Olajide Fowotade.

He was given N2million after he was brutalized by a police officer.

Mr Fowotade, 60-years old, asked for a N3 million compensation, when he testified.

He said in 2017, one sergeant Ayo of Ketu division physically assaulted him and knocked out two of his teeth.

Eleven other victims including the family of Jesica Adaobi, Oshidipe Sunday, Gloria Eze among others were compensated with varying sums.

While I commend them for compensating the late Kayode family, the panel should also bring the culprits book..... That would be the best Justice you can give to the family of the deceased.



If the panel keeps giving families of slain #EndSARS protesters N10mil without bringing those useless erring officers to book, then it's a total waste of time, energy and money.

Ignorant folks like you would rather spend time watching BBNaija reunion than follow up on proceedings of EndSars panel.
To help cure your ignorance, the panel extends beyond EndSars to general cases of police brutality. I know for sure that the policemen involved have been dismissed and being jailed.
Upon thousands of ibo boys wasted by Akwuzu Sars, Not one of the victims has been compensated as their lives matter nothing to the government of your state.. Yet, whatever efforts LASG considers in ensuring a degree of closure is being undermined by children of hate.

N10million can't raise the dead
