Dave was a sound Engineer in Lagos. He was on his way to an event at Admiralty using the same bike with the keyboardist Philip . They had an argument with the bike man who was an Aboki man over N100 which resulted in a fight. #JusticeForDave

The other Hausa men around the area, doubled up and beat the two men using sticks, stones and whatever they could lay their hands on. They videos-recorded the whole act. In the video they were heard boasting. “We we be Hausa men”
They beat Dave to death but they didn’t stop there

They poured fuel on him and set his body ablaze, burning him beyond recognition . The saxophonist, Frank, went to the scene to try to access the situation and possibly separate them but he was beaten to coma and is currently fighting for his life alongside Philip.

This didn’t happen in Kaduna, Sokoto or Taraba. This happened in Lagos State the heart of Yorubaland.
Dave was not a thief.
Dave was not a fraudster
Dave was not a criminal
Dave was a young Nigeria struggling and making an honest living.

Few days ago someone raised concerns about the high influx of Hausa men into Lagos state and questioned their motive and sponsors. Some people scorned him as if he was saying nonsense. We are beginning to see the result. These men are already feeling like they own Lagos too

They fell they own Lagos because if they even had the slightest fear that ‘this is someone else’s land’ they wouldn’t have committed that dastardly act.
The Yorubas need to wake up from slumber. The igbos, Akwa Ibomites and Cross Riverians need to wake up from their slumber.

We haven’t even finished mourning the gruesome murder of Deborah in Sokoto and they took it to our very doorstep to show us that Alaye you can’t do anything. How long will this continue? Is it a crime to be a Nigerian? What is the value of the Nigerian citizenship and passport?
