Imo State born Stefany was having a cheerful Sunday on March 31, 2019 when her phone rang. The display would show that it was the unlikeliest of callers.

It was a friend of her fiancé – Kolade Johnson–on the other end.

“I was at home and I received a call from his friend who was trying to know if I had heard from him. And I’m like ‘no, we haven’t spoken’”, Stefany tells Pulse in an emotion laden voice. She had been crying for two days when we hit her up.

“The way he sounded—because I don’t really talk to that his friend—I knew something was wrong. Like, we don’t talk regularly. So, for that call to come and the first thing he asked me was ‘have you heard from ‘Kaylo?’, I was like no. I called his niece immediately because this friend hung up and said ‘I will call you back’. So, he hung up”.

A couple of calls later and Stefany would learn that her boyfriend, 36-year-old Johnson of Ogun State descent, had been shot dead by a police officer as he ventured out to catch a Live English Premiership football game, in the Mangoro, Onipetesi suburb of Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial capital.

“So, I called the mum and I spoke to his friends that were right there and they confirmed it that he is dead and they are trying to take him into the morgue”, Stefany says, her words threatening to drown in more tears.

“Nobody could tell me the full story then. They just said it is SARS. I was even thinking, I don’t get. Why would SARS look for Kolade. He doesn’t…when he sees police like this, he would rather make a U-Turn or something. He doesn’t like to get into their trouble…” she adds.

Police brutality once more

SARS is an acronym for the police Special Anti-Robbery Squad.

For years, SARS has become synonymous with extra-judicial killings, human rights abuses, extortion and excessive use of force when dealing with members of the public.

However, the world would later learn that the police unit culpable for the disturbance and shootings in Mangoro on the day, was the lesser known but no less deadly Special Anti-Cultism Squad (SACS).

Stefany says, “So, I came on the internet and I saw the story trending and I was very surprised”. She adds that the bereaved family is inconsolable at the moment.
“No one in the family is finding it easy. No one wants to believe it is true. Especially his mum. His mum hasn’t eaten. As of yesterday, when they broke the news to her in the morning, the only thing she had till I left her in the morning was tea. And even when they induced her to sleep, she refused to. She’s elderly, she’s sickly, because she has high BP. They induced her with sleeping injections but it didn’t even have an effect on her”, Stefany shares further.

Kaylo and who he was

‘Kaylo’ is what Stefany called Kolade Johnson and how she still refers to him. She would never come to terms with the fact that her Kaylo is no more, she says.

“He was my fiancé. We didn’t have a child together but he has a child. We had many plans (including getting married). Many plans.
“Kaylo was a very easy going person. Very friendly. Very, very friendly. Anybody that has met him and spent time with him would tell you that he didn’t like trouble, he didn’t like stress. He was very helpful, very homely. He was just a good person. He was a peace maker who didn’t like to oppress anyone. He didn’t like anyone being oppressed. That’s who Kolade was”.

Kaylo and Stefany were self-employed—eking out a living in Lagos’ arduous and unforgiving streets. They were essentially ‘legitimate, honest hustlers’.

Stefany says: “I am into fashion and entertainment, I do tailoring. I sell accessories and make-up. Kolade didn’t have a stable job per se. He was self-employed as well. He was doing music by the side, he had this Agric business he was trying to run, farm feeds and stuff like that. That’s what he was doing to keep up for the moment…”

And then March 31 happened.

Since Kaylo’s death, Stefany has been clutching a pair of black and red slippers. It was what her fiance wore on the day the stray bullet hit him, cutting short his life and plans with her, in an instant. It’s what she says she’ll always keep with her as a way of helping her deal with the loss of her Kaylo.

“This is all Kolade left me”, she says amid tears. “This is all Kaylo left for me…

The police command has arrested the officers alleged to have taken Kaylo’s life.

Inspector Ogunyemi Olalekan (middle) says he didn’t intend to kill Kolade Johnson (right) when he shot in the air during an altercation in Lagos State that led to the death of the 36-year-old. Sergeant Godwin Orji (left) is also implicated in the shooting with both officers expected to be charged to court for murder.

Johnson was was killed on Sunday, March 31, 2019 when officers of the unit, led by Olalekan, were attempting to arrest another man because of his dreadlocks in the Mangoro area of the state.

When he was paraded alongside Sergeant Godwin Orji as the main suspects in Johnson’s shooting on Tuesday, April 2, Olalekan said he didn’t intend to shoot the deceased father of one.

According to him, he only shot once in the air after his team was mobbed while trying to arrest a suspected cultist.

He said, “We heard a distress call that we should move to Mangoro. So, on getting there, we saw a group of guys smoking Indian hemp. We thought they’re cultists and effected an arrest there.

“Suddenly, they mobbed us, me and my boys. So, in terms of escaping them, I fired up.

“I didn’t know how it got to meet the guy in question that was shot dead, I don’t know. I only fired one up.”

Eyewitnesses contradict Olalekan’s story

Contrary to Olalekan’s version of events, an eyewitness, identified as Mr Nana, who was with Johnson when he was shot, said Olalekan trained his gun on them.

“Kolade stood right beside me, he didn’t talk. I was the one that spoke. Next thing I saw was he pointed a gun at us and shot twice,” he said.

Nana said he and Kolade left the relaxation spot where they were watching an English Premier League game on Sunday after hearing pleas for help outside.

They discovered that the officers were trying to arrest Ismail Folorunsho, a young man who appeared to have been targeted for arrest because of his dreadlocks, a common practice by the anti-cultism unit.

Folorunsho told Channels Television that he was trying to board a bus when an officer came out of nowhere to arrest him.

He said attempts to question the officers about why he was being arrested and where he was being taken to led to him being assaulted.

The struggle that ensued was what drew Nana and Johnson to where the fatal shooting eventually happened.

According to confirmed reports, Nigerian owned businesses were targeted as some shops were vandalised and goods stolen in a recent Xenophobic attack which happened on Tuesday in Mpumalanga Province, South Africa.

It was gathered that about eight Nigerians were abducted by South Africans in Evander, north-west of Secunda in Mpumalanga province of the country, but have been released after government intervention.

Some others were beaten mercilessly during attack by South African residents as can be seen in the video below.

Adetola Olubajo, president of the Nigerian union in South Africa, told NAN that the abducted Nigerians were released on Wednesday following pressure by the union on the South African authorities.

Olubajo said Nigerians in Evander had also informed the union about attacks on them in the province. “The mob arrested eight Nigerians and took them to an unknown destination.” Olubajo said the union had informed the Nigerian mission in South Africa about the incident.

A lady has been arrested for reportedly ‘raping’ a mentally unstable man. The dancer identified as Evernice is suspected to have been enticed by the size of the man’s privates before she lured him into a private room.

Whilst in the room, she allegedly had sex with the victim.

The incident occurred on Friday around 5pm in Chinhoyi area of Zimbabwe where Evernice had gone to perform along with her fellow dancers. She has been charged.

Mashonaland West provincial police spokesperson, Inspector Clemence Mabgweazara confirmed the arrest but said he is yet to be furnished with more details.

Dancers Association of Zimbabwe (DAZ), President Harpers Mapimhidze, confirmed the incident and blasted the dancer for tarnishing the name of the association.

“We condemn and don’t tolerate such behaviour by a dancer and we don’t expect this in the future. “She took advantage of the man’s condition to quench her appetite,” said Mapimhidze.

A close source to the incident said:

“It was on Friday last week around 5pm when the man was making some funny moves. “He was exposing his privates and he has a big private organ which Evernice got attracted to and she then got interested to get close to the victim.

“She then took him to a room where she slept with him.”

Added the source:

“After she finished having sex with him, he told people that he had had sex with the accused. “A counsellor was quickly called before police also came to the scene and took her to the cells.

“She was on stage, and she was advised to run away since she had committed an offence by sleeping with a person who is not well.

“She refused to run away saying that he was the one who had slept with her,” said the source.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Uyo zonal office, on Wednesday April 3, 2019, arrested five internet fraudsters in a sting operation.

It was tragedy at Sunshine Lodge, Ihiagwa, one of the satellite communities close to the Federal University of Technology, Owerri (FUTO), Imo State on Tuesday night.

Three students collapsed and died while taking turns to have sex with a co-student after allegedly taking a mixture of tramadol, codeine and vodka. Two of them, according to an eyewitness account, died instantly while the only lady among them and another male student were found unconscious.

They were immediately rushed to the Federal Medical Centre Owerri where they were admitted at the Intensive Care Unit. The male student later died at the hospital, after efforts to revive him by a team of medical personnel failed. At as the time of filling this report, students have vacated the hostel, while the caretaker has been arrested by the police.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Orlando Ikeokwu, a Superintendent of Police, confirmed to The Guardian yesterday that the students used sex-enhancing drugs during the sex romp at Sunshine Lodge. He gave the names of the deceased as Ugochukwu Kingsley, Aka Uche and one Richard.

Acording to him, the police operatives who evacuated the bodies also recovered substances suspected to be Indian hemp and tramadol. “On April 2, information was received from the caretaker of Sunshine Lodge in Ihiagwa, that the students of Federal University of Technology, Owerri, were engaged in a sex romp with one Onyinyechi Okafor, also a student of the same university.

“Police detectives from Nekede Division promptly mobilised to the scene and found the four victims completely Unclad and unconscious. The victims were immediately conveyed to the police clinic but Ugochukwu Kingsley and Aka Uche were certified dead by the medical doctor on duty. Their bodies have been deposited at the Federal Medical Centre, Owerri, for autopsy, while their families have been contacted. The condition of the surviving victim is still being closely monitored.”Ikeokwu said the Commissioner of Police frowns at drug abuse and other illicit acts by youths, whose parents are working hard to guarantee a good future.

When contacted, the Public Relations Officer of the university, Mrs. Uche Nwaelue, couldn’t confirm if the victims were students of FUTO. She said: “We are still investigating to ascertain if truly, they are students at FUTO.“You know, the lodge where the incident occurred are being occupied by students from different institutions. Apart from FUTO students who live there, students at Federal Polytechnic, Nekede, also live there. We have to conclude our investigations first before we can come up with an official position on the incident. But I have read it online.”

In another development, 22-year-old Chika Alex-Chukwuezie has committed suicide in Ubaekwem community in Ihiala local government area of Anambra State. The deceased reportedly hung on a mango tree for yet-to-be ascertained reason. It was gathered that the deceased until his death was an active youth in the Umuezekwe political ward of Ihiala LGA.

A family member, who preferred anonymity, said the act might not be unconnected to spiritual liberation defect due to the reoccurring suicide incidents that plague the family. He said: “He was a single unemployed young man who had completed his SSS exams, with the hope to excel in business after schooling.

“One of his uncles also committed suicide at a youthful age decades ago. The family will have to subject itself to spiritual cleansing to avert recurrence of this unfortunate incident.”It was further gathered that the body of the deceased had been thrown into the thick forest in accordance with Igbo traditional rites. “Efforts are ongoing to bring in traditionalists who will cut off the mango tree where he hanged himself and sanctify the compound,” a source added.The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Harunna Muhammed, confirmed the incident, adding that investigation was on to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the incident.

A police officer attached to Omu-Aran Police Division in Kwara, Sgt. Abu, was killed by a suspected mad man, on Tuesday April 2nd.

According to reports, the mad man stormed the police station with a cutlass and other dangerous weapons and attacked Abu.

The deceased was rushed to a private hospital in the town, but was later transfered to Ido Medical Centre in Ekiti State where he died on Wednesday April 3rd.

An eyewitness said ;

“I was on my motorcycle when I saw the fleeing man holding a cutlass and a wood. He was wearing a red attire and we followed him. Later, some other motorcyclists joined in the chase and on getting to Taiwo Area, he stopped, dropped his weapons and raised up his hands. It was in the process that he was arrested by the police and moved to the station,” the eye witness, who preferred anonymity, said.

Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the command, Ajayi Okasanmi, the matter is being investigated.

The Lagos state police command spokesperson, Bala Elkana, has said that Tattoos and Dreadlocks are strange to our culture and is part of the reason why most people who rock them are being harassed by law enforcement agents.

In an interview with BBC pidgin, Bala who condemned the recent killing of a football fan, Kolade Johnson in the state, said police officers usually harass any youth wearing dreadlocks or having a tattoo on them because most of the cultists that have been arrested wear dreadlocks or have tattoos on them.

He said that the police has overtime seen a connection between cultism and those that rock dreadlocks and have tattoos on their body

According to him, “tattoo and dreadlock are strange to our culture especially for Nigeria. Most times when you arrest cultists, many of them have signs on them”
