Counsel to LASG on the Panel, Mr Abiodun Owonikoko SAN, says the white paper is supposed to be the official communication to the public, Owonikoko SAN says the document being sent around is unsigned but contains all names of members.

Owonikoko SAN accused a “gentlemen” who he called ‘a very respected member’ for the entire duration stopped attending proceedings pertaining to the Lekki incident, He says the gentleman is Ebun Adegboruwa SAN, he says he clearly has his own agenda to pursue.

Owonikoko SAN gives examples of cases where members of a Tribunal did not participate in the process of the Tribunal and still say to give judgement on the same subject matter which they did not participate in, which invalidated the whole process in court.

Owonikoko SAN says the most important part of the panel sitting is the Forensic Report, he says the panel engaged the forensic experts themselves & adjourned several times for all members to attend, DIG Lakanu (Police rep) attended while Adegboruwa was absent for the major parts.

Arise TV Reporter: Why are u just saying all this now because it didn’t Favour the State Govt.

Owonikoko SAN: The report is not unfavorable to Lagos State, the burden on Lagos State is to establish whether they deployed army and their report did not say so.

Owonikoko SAN says he has identified almost 40 discrepancies in the so called report (If authentic), he says the panel awarded millions of Naira compensation to someone that is alive for his death, he says the person’s name appeared in the list of “deceased”.
