The incident which happened on Sunday in Mangoro, an area close to the international airport. Ikeja, on Sunday at approximately 4:30 p.m, raised anger on social media.

Premium Times reports that late Johnson was shot while seeing a live football match between Liverpool and Tottenham at approximately 4:30 p.m.

A friend of the deceased, while speaking to journalist said the officers who came in a yellow danfo bus wanted to arrest a popular man identified as Ismail Folorunsho because of his dreadlocks fearing he might be a criminal but people quickly gathered to intervene when the incident happened.

Ismail Folorunsho has returned to the street, people have seen him around tonight, that must have been because they did not find anything on him and they should not have harassed him at all because of his dreadlocks.
