” Ikoyi-Ile has no history or record of hostility as the residents of the Community are known for peace, tranquility, love, hardworking, harmony and hospitality while the Community will not allow some unscrupulous element to tarnish the age long reputation of the town”.

“The entire Ikoyi-Ile Community wants Police to conduct thorough investigation in the mystery and circumstances surrounding the ugly incident and bring the perpetrators Bola Babatunde Adeeko and her son Owolabi together with their white garment Church Cleric, Segun Philips to justice.

“It is imperative at this juncture for Media organizations to verify their news stories before going to Press on the incident especially on the area that concern the town as the Community will not feel comfortable with any portrayal of its history and reputation” the release stated.

The release however added that, Ikoyi-Ile remains one of the peaceful communities in the state and it is open for business for patriotic Nigerians that are ready to do legitimate work as the community will never serve as abode for people with criminal tendency.
