Ogboni leader, Tajudeen Olanrewaju Bakare has been declared wanted.
The Lagos State Police Command declared him wanted in a statement on Thursday by Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin.
Police linked Bakare to the deadly clash in Surulere involving supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) clashed during the visit of PDP governorship candidate Abdulazeez Adeniran a.k.a. Jandor.
There was open use of firearms and other weapons during the fight that left at least two persons dead last Friday.
Hundeyin disclosed that the police acted on a video showing a man wielding a pump action rifle and threatening public peace.
The CSP Egbeyemi-led Rapid Response Squad (RRS), working on actionable intelligence, carried out a sting operation on Bakare’s residence in Surulere.
Officers found three pump action rifles, one Beretta pistol magazine, one expended 9mm ammunition, one expended and three live cartridges and a picture frame.Oriental Times
