In his arguments, his defense counsel, Adetokunbo Odutola told the court to note among other things that none of the eyewitnesses saw the defendant shoot and that the ballistic report of the gun allegedly fired expressly stated that the bullet cannot be linked with any of the firearms recovered from the police officers at the scene.

The prosecution led by the Attorney General of Lagos State, Moyosore Onigbanjo (SAN), had however countered the arguments and urged the defendant to defend himself insisting that the prosecution has successfully made its case against him.NYSC Portal
