Two on the run

Three students out of the five who allegedly assaulted the late Dowen College Student, Sylvester Oromoni have been arrested.

Two others named are at large.

This was confirmed today (Tuesday) by Mr. Hakeem Odumosu, Lagos State commissioner of police in an interview with the Punch.

Sylvester Oromoni had named five students he could recognize among those who tortured him before he gave up the ghost.

He said the school principal, housemasters, and other officials of the school are also assisting the police with information as the command launched a full-scale probe into the circumstances culminating in the death of Oromoni on November 30, 2021.

He said: “It is still an allegation until we conduct our investigation. We just started full investigation yesterday (Monday). Two out of those mentioned in the viral video are at large while three of the students are helping us to get others.

I am in contact with my counterpart in Delta State. I spoke with the parents yesterday, we are perfecting everything scientifically,” Odumosu said.
