CSP Adejobi said the police, in collaboration with the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team, have started an investigation into the matter and intensified efforts to arrest the suspect.

“The concerned women have made series of comments on the social media which will assist the police in their investigation.
“The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, CP Hakeem Odumosu has condemned such inhuman, immoral and criminal act of Mr Matthew.

“The Commissioner of Police has ordered the Gender Unit of the Command to expedite action on the case, arrest the suspect and commence proper investigation so as to maintain sanity in the society,’’ Adejobi added.
