According an eye witness the incident occurred on Tuesday Dec.10th around the Yaba area of Lagos, a car that had been parked on the road for quite a while, cornered a trailer as it approached around 4pm on Tuesday. Two hefty men then jumped out of the car and dragged down the driver of the trailer who was wearing a blue suit and began stabbing him in broad day light.
According to eye witnesses, one man concentrated on his head and the other on his tummy, while people watched in horror unable to help the victim. They stabbed him for several minutes while a third man said to be the driver of the car was heard shouting ‘kill him’, ‘kill him’ in Yoruba.
The incident which lasted a few minutes caused serious traffic and panic as several motorist, who weren’t sure of what was going on, abandoned their vehicles and took to their heels.
After the men ensured that their victim was dead, they got into their car and drove off. A few minutes later, a huge crowd gathered where the victim lay dead where it was later learned that the dead man was the head of the Tipper ‘Trailer’ association in the Bariga area of Lagos and was just coming back from court where he’d been favoured in a land dispute.
His family members arrived the scene several minutes later, and one member was heard screaming “Can you see Kayode has killed my brother, Can you see”. His corpse was removed by the police.
Photos were taken a few minutes after the murder took place. Find them after the cut…*viewer discretion highly advised*

Only God can save us in this country. This is what injustice can cause. May be those who killed him felt the court had unjustly denied them justice and they embark on jungle justice.
I am not saying what they did is right but I want us to see it from the angle that injustice can never bring peace, rather it triggers violence.
The true picture is best known to the parties concern. Let us aspire for peace through justice.
If the murderers are known they should not go scotch free. That is if there is still justice in this country. However, one thing is certain, if you escape men’s judgment you cannot escape God’s judgment.
@ peter what do u mean see what injustice can bring? If u know how ur comment might be viewed, u cannot expect to have effectively cushioned it just by adding that u are not saying the killers a right. Be careful.
GOD will fetch the killers but come to think of it u and i dont know what transpired between them let remember coin has two sides.
no matter wat may ave transpired man does nt ave d rite 2 take a fellow humans life that he dint create. those that perpetrated such heinous evil will b judged accordingly by Almighty God.
d heart of man is so wicked,now u have killed him,what have benefitted,God will ask u for d blood of dis young man u murders spilled,may them gave terrible dreams and days till dey confess
