My daughter promised me birthday dress days before her murder: Bamise’s mother

Mrs Comfort Ayanwola, mother of 22-year-old Oluwabamise Ayanwola, who was abducted and killed after boarding a Lagos Bus Rapid Transit vehicle in Ajah, said the deceased promised to sow a birthday dress for her days before she was murdered.

 

 

The 72-year-old mother said nothing could replace her daughter but all the family wanted was justice.

 

 

The deceased was the last born of her parent 10 children.

 

 

Speaking with PUNCH, she said; “I celebrated my birthday some days ago, my daughter promised to give me a new dress as my birthday gift but the evil people had killed her.

 

 

“She boarded a luxury bus belonging to the government and that was her end.

 

 

“The police and the government should be truthful in their investigation and judgment so that the outcome will serve as a deterrent to others who are still in the business of ritual killing.

 

 

“I believe they have been using the BRT services to commit this atrocity for long but God used our daughter to expose them by capturing the number of the bus used to carry out this particular atrocity.

 

 

“Is it that the BRT services are no longer safe to transit passengers? Government should not try to cover up for the driver, he should be exposed.

 

 

“We work hard and struggle to survive. We are content with what we have,” she said.

 

 

According to Mrs Ayanwola, the verbal-note evidence her daughter sent to her friend before she was allegedly murdered should be enough evidence for the government to prosecute the driver.

 

 

“The evidence which had gone viral should be enough evidence for the prosecution of the suspect.

 

 

“The driver is now lying that kidnappers pointed a gun at him and dragged our daughter out of the BRT bus he was driving and was in transit then.

 

 

“Kidnappers pointed a gun at him, dragged his passenger out from the bus in transit and he did not go to the police station to report the matter, it is a lie.”

 

 

WITHIN NIGERIA had reported that dead body of Bamise who got missing after boarding BRT bus from Ajah was reportedly found with some body parts missing on Monday.

 

 

Bamise got missing while returning to Ota from Ajah on February 26 when she boarded a BRT bus with number 240257 going to Oshodi about 7 pm at Chevron Bus-Stop.
