Following the kidnap and brutal killing of 22-year-old lady, Bamise Ayanwole, whose body was discovered after taking a BRT ride, actress Toyin Abraham-Ajeyemi has taken to Instagram to call out the Lagos state Government.
Toyin wondered why are the BRT buses are not fitted with CCTV cameras and what measures they have put in place since this incident to assure Lagosians that the BRT buses are now safe.
In a post shared on her IG page, Toyin wrote;
”It is sad enough that Nigeria is not safe but to think that a place or thing considered as property like BRT is now considered a dangerous place should all get all of us concerned. But I have few questions for Lagos State Government, why are the BRT buses not fitted with CCTV cameras? What measure have you put in place since this incident that made you assure Lagosians that the BRT buses are now safe?
Are we truly safe or your speech is just government rhetoric, telling us what we want to hear?
Lagosians, please be careful, we cannot move about like everything is okay. Things are not okay if we are not safe inside government buses.
And to the family of Ayanwole Oluwabamise I sympathize with you. Some of us will reach out to see how you can go through this phase with some measure of ease-no easy way in grieve. May God truly console you.
This is such a sad incident!
