The Lagos State Police Command on Tuesday, September 30, arraigned a leader of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), Shamusideen Oladiti, popularly known as Shameleon, before the Ebute-Meta Magistrate Court, Yaba, over the alleged murder of a dispatch rider.

Oladiti, 55, was docked on a three-count charge of murder, conspiracy, and grievous harm.

According to the prosecution, the incident occurred on August 27 and September 17, 2025, within the Lagos Island Magisterial District. The court was told that Oladiti, alongside others still at large, allegedly beat two men, Imam Ramon and Omale Samuel, with fist blows, leading to severe injuries. Ramon was later rushed to the Lagos Island General Hospital, Marina, where he was confirmed dead.

The offences, the prosecution added, contravene Sections 223, 411, and 245 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.

Police investigations revealed that the altercation began after the deceased was accused of scratching Oladiti’s vehicle along Tapa Street, Lagos Island. Eyewitnesses alleged that the victim was repeatedly struck with a helmet and fists by Oladiti and his associates until he collapsed. He later died from the injuries sustained.

When the charges were read, Oladiti pleaded not guilty.

The Magistrate ordered his remand pending legal advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
