An advocacy group, Lawyers for Reform Group (LRG), on Monday called on President Bola Tinubu's administration to thoroughly investigate the activities of an alleged land-grabber in Lagos State, identified as Mr Urakat Audullahi, who also uses the name - Saheed Mosadoluwa, aka Ibile for alleged criminal activities.
SaharaReporters earlier reported that the Nigeria Police Force arrested Ibile for alleged criminal activities.
Sources told SaharaReporters on Monday that Ibile was arrested on Saturday in Lagos and flown to Abuja by a combined team of the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Special Tactical Squad team.
According to one of the sources, his arrest followed his recent "terrorist" conduct and attacks on innocent residents of Lagos State.
Addressing journalists at the STS office in Abuja, on Monday, Hassan Oladotun, executive project director, Lawyers for Reform Group (LRG) called on all security agencies and the president to thoroughly investigate the activists of Ibile.
The lawyer called on President Tinubu, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS), the National Security Adviser and the Inspector-General of police to immediately commence an investigation and prosecute anyone found culpable.
He said, "Ibile was arrested on Saturday in Lagos and brought to Abuja by a combined team of IGP Special Tactical Squad over recent terrorism conduct and merciless attacks."
The group alleged that Ibile engaged over 30 police orderlies to commit crimes in the state including attempted murder.
Meanwhile, one of the land owners, Mike Utomi told journalists that Ibile organised allegedly organised thugs that destroyed his ongoing properties, while attacking his workers on site.
Other cases against Ibile include threatening the life of Chief Adetunji Yusuf Hassan Fasasi, Baale of Ilamija Village, Ibeju-Lekki.
