NaijaOnPoint Nigeria reports that the Lagos state high court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square has sentenced a driver of the Lagos bus rapid transit (BRT), Andrew Nice Ominikoron, to death by hanging for killing a 22-year-old fashion designer, Bamise Ayanwola.

 

The trial judge, Sherifat Sonaike, gave the verdict on Friday, May 2, 2025.

 

Recall that the Lagos State Government had arraigned Ominnikoron on a four-count charge of conspiracy, murder, and two counts of rape.

 

The prosecution alleged that on November 25, 2021, Ominnikoron raped a 29-year-old woman, Nneka Maryjane Ozezulu, in Lagos. He was also accused of conspiring with others, who are still at large, to sexually assault his 22-year-old passenger, Oluwabamise Ayanwole, before murdering her.
