It was reported that the son of Ibadan based popular politician, Alhaji Yekini Adeojo, Sodiq Adeojo was sentenced to 30 years in prison for his alleged involvement in the murder of 17 year old Sylvester Akapalara on Dec 29, 2010.
Sodiq who is associating with a gang in Brixton was tried along with his two brothers who are 16 year-old and 18 year-old respectively, but the two brothers were later cleared in the murder case, while Sodiq was sentence to 30 years in prison.
When delivering his judgement, Judge Timothy Pontious said-
“Sylvester was an athlete of remarkable ability. He happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. It seems he was just one of the many victims targeted in the last few years in mindless and appalling violence simply because of their membership or presumed membership of opposing gangs.”
