“On the 27th of March 2023, around 3am, approximately 12 groups of men came over to our family residence in Lagos, Nigeria in search of my younger brother, Lucas Ologbenla who was only 40yrs old. They Knocked the doors and windows of where Lucas Ologbenla’s mother, brother and sisters lived with his elder brother; Anthony Ologbenla and children. These men started shooting and threatening us to open the door, saying ‘we know Lucas Ologbenla is inside this house and he has returned to Nigeria’. They claimed to be so sure since they haven’t seen on his Instagram page since January 2023 and that they were very sure that he was inside hiding from the public.
“Even though we were under serious panic but remained resolute not to open the doors despite the continuous threats and gun shots. As they didn’t succeed in gaining entrance, they resulted in destroying some of the expensive furniture and decorations in the compound of the house. They even broke some empty bottles of beer they found in the backyard of the building before they left.
“They stayed on the street for over 30 minutes looking for a way to break into the house, according to eyewitnesses. The other landlords in the neighbourhood had to start blowing their whistles loudly to scare them away and to call for the attention of the local security men in the area for help. After a while of unsuccessful attack, they returned to their cars and drove off. But they threatened and promised to be back for my brother, Lucas Ologbenla a.k.a Dr. Lucas. So, we quickly moved out of the house for safety of our lives in an undisclosed location.
