Andrew Ominikoron, a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) driver, was found guilty and given the death penalty by the Lagos High Court in Tafawa Balewa Square for the murder of fashion designer Bamise Ayanwola, age 22.
The judge held, “that for the death of Oluwabamise Ayanwola, you will be hanged by the neck until you are dead. May God have mercy upon you.”
In a ruling that lasted more than two and a half hours, Justice Serifat Sonaike ruled that the Lagos State Government, the prosecution, had proven the defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
