Petition on behalf of late Damilola Iyanda
On the floor of the hallowed chamber today, I presented a petition on behalf of the late Damilola Iyanda, a Corp member serving his country, whose life was tragically cut short by the monitoring unit of the Oyo State Police Command in Ogbomoso.
Damilola Iyanda, before his untimely death, was serving in Ibadan, Oyo State, and was tragically killed on Tuesday 23rd of April, 2024, at Under G area in Ogbomoso, Oyo State.
As expected, this heartbreaking loss has caused immense sorrow for Damilola’s elderly parents, family, and friends.
Immediately after the incident, I met with the Nigeria Police Force Area Commander in Ogbomoso, ACP Adigun, and he assured me of their commitment to justice as the erring officers have been suspended pending investigations.
I have pledged to ensure that justice is given to Damilola, hence, the petition before the House today. All the erring officers must be brought to justice. RIP Damilola.
