New Update Emerge on the Pepper Sellers Torturing Women in Lagos, Inserting Pepper in Their Private Parts

Several days
ago thousands
of people on social media were shocked by
the video of beating and torturing 2 women for
allegedly stealing pepper.
Ever since the video was made public, a few people
have been working behind the scenes to find the
men who did this. Therefore, some sort of update
has appeared.
The breakthrough has been achieved with the
involvement of the Chairman of Ejigbo Local
Council of Lagos. He's worked his socks off on this
case since some people got in touch with him.
Read the response below. Probably this new details
will put up some pressure on the Lagos State Govt
and the Lagos State Police to speed up
investigations.
Kehinde Bamigbetan:
I promised an update in 24 hours: This incident
took place in the central market, Iyana Ejigbo,
Ejigbo LCDA in February 2013. The pepper sellers
normally leave their goods in their stalls. They
returned the next day to discover that their goods
were being stolen. They reported this to the
vigilante they hired to secure the market. About
6am, the two women were allegedly caught
stealing pepper. They were a wife and her step-
daughter. They lived near the market with the
husband. The husband is said to be a wine tapper.
After the barbaric torture, both confessed to
stealing the pepper and were let go. However, a
few members of the vigilante feared that the case
may spread. And informed the leadership of the
vigilante group. Those involved were allegedly
penalized and the gang disbanded. The scene was
then converted to shops and rented out. I have
reviewed these with the DPO and both of us are
bothered by the impact of the time lag of over nine
months on investigation. This may also explain the
initial denials by the stakeholders. We are working
on getting the wine tapper to trace his wife and
daughter involved. If he has not relocated from
Ejigbo, then we have a good chance of retrieving
information and tracking the story.
