His ears had been cut off and his eyes were gone and I quickly called a community leader and i was informed that the police were on their way.
People took Ora in a tricycle to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital(LUTH), but the doctors turned them back at the gate, saying it was too late. They had to bring his corpse back to the area and from there he was taking to a mortuary.
The police then went to the local clinic where Oyeolorun(Jimoh) was receiving treatment and he was arrested.
