The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, Olohundare Jimoh, has ordered a forensic investigation into the death of former Ondo State governorship candidate, Mr Bamidele Akingboye.
The order followed the circulation of a disturbing photograph of his body on social media, purportedly showing bruises on his head and raising doubts about the real cause of death.
The image has sparked suspicion that Akingboye’s death may not have been natural, contradicting earlier reports that he died peacefully at his VGC residence in Lagos on Wednesday.
Human rights advocates have urged the police to ensure a thorough, transparent and credible investigation that will determine the actual circumstances surrounding Akingboye’s death.
