Governor of Lagos State, Sanwo-Olu has finally broken his silence no the tragic death of 22-year-old lady, Oluwabamise Ayanwola.
Oluwabamise was found dead with some of her organs missing days after she made a distress call to a friend that the BRT vehicle she’d boarded from Chevron to Oshodi seemed suspicious.
In his statement, the Governor assured the family of Bamise and the people of Lagos that he is closely following the investigation and justice will be served.

Dear Lagosians, the life of every citizen of the state matters to us, and we do not take the security of our people for granted.
We will therefore leave no stone unturned in the investigation and arrest of everyone found culpable in the kidnap and death of Oluwabamise Ayanwola
The driver of the BRT bus involved in this unfortunate incident has been arrested, and Lagos Bus Service Ltd have been directed to cooperate with security agencies in their investigations, so that the full weight of the law is brought down on all involved in this ugly incident.
To Oluwabamise’s family and loved ones, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time, may the Almighty God console you. I hereby give you my word that JUSTICE WILL BE SERVED.
To fellow Lagosians, I assure you that I am following all the investigations closely, and will ensure that Oluwabamise gets the justice she deserves.
I also assure you all that the BRT services remain safe, despite this condemnable act.
Once again, my sincere condolences to the Ayanwola family.
May Oluwabamise’s soul Rest In Peace. Amen.
