death on Friday August 10th has been freed of the murder charge. The
police, some LASTMA officials, eye witnesses and some members of the
press visited the scene of the incident yesterday Monday August 13th
to investigate further and afterwards all agreed that Yinka's car was
not the car that hit and killed 33 year old Hammed Balogun.
Eye-witnesses, including the one inside the bus that allegedly
killed hammed, gave the police a clear account of what really happened
that Friday.
After the investigation yesterday, the police officially dropped the
murder charge and instead arraigned her for driving recklessly. Yinka
Johnson was brought to the Igbosere Magistrate Court today to face a
one-count charge of driving recklessly. She was granted bail and
ordered to pay fine. The case was adjourned to Sept 3rd.
