#JusticeForStephen trends as footballer returning from vigilante duty is shot dead by man who claims he mistook him for a member of the One Million Boys gang (Graphic photos)

Residents of Iba Local Council Development Area have been staying up at night to take turns in protecting their environment from the One Million Boys robbery gang terrorizing neighborhoods. Unfortunately, one young man was shot dead while returning from vigilante duties and residents say his killer had threatened him with death multiple times.
 
Stephen, 26, was from Arogbo Kingdom in Ondo State. His career as a footballer was just taking off and he was supposed to travel to Portugal this year to pursue his football career but he was held back due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

Stephen joined members of his community on Friday, April 17, to guard his neighbourhood, Victory Estate, in Iba and was on his way back on the morning of Saturday, April 18, when he was shot by Mr James Olu, a retired naval officer who is also the chairman of the Landlord's Association of Victory estate in Iba.

According to reports, Mr James initially claimed he thought Stephen was a member of the One Million Boys gang when he saw him moving around that early. Later, at the police station, he claimed Stephen was a cultist.
 
However, residents alleged Mr James had a long-standing misunderstanding with Stephen and has threatened him with death multiple times. Residents claim Mr James killed Stephen intentionally and they have gone on Twitter to call for justice for the deceased, with the hashtag #JusticeForStephen.
 
There was unrest in the area following Stephen's death but residents claim Stephen's family have been threatened that there will be consequences if violence erupts due to Stephen's death.
 
As a result, youths in the area have calmed down and have taken to Twitter to claim that Stephen's death was premeditated and to ask that Mr James - who reportedly ''inspires fear in the youths in the neighborhood'' - be made to face the law.
 
See a thread below narrating the alleged events leading up to Stephen's death and the aftermath.

Police has confirmed the arrest of James Olu, the Chairman of the Victory Estate, Iba, Lagos State, after he allegedly shot dead a young footballer who was returning home from vigilante duty (read here).
 
#JusticeForStephen began trending on Twitter after 26-year-old footballer Stephen Doubra Benson Legbe was shot dead on Saturday, April 18, 2020.
 
There was a bit of commotion in the area following Stephen's death as residents asked for justice for the slain footballer who was supposed to have traveled out of Nigeria to further his career but was held back due to the pandemic.
 
Residents claimed Mr James Olu, an ex-naval officer and also the Chairman of the Landlord's Association at Victory Estate, Iba, Lagos State, has threatened multiple times to kill Stephen as both men were never in good terms.
 
On Saturday, as Stephen was returning home after joining the youths in his area to guard the neighbourhood against the One Million Boys robbery gang, Mr James, who also did vigilante the night before, met him and they had an altercation. It allegedly ended with Mr James shooting Stephen.

Residents say they had no idea Mr James would follow through on his threat and they went after Mr James. When they didn't find him at home, they destroyed his properties,
 
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Bala Elkana, has confirmed the arrest of Mr James and said the incident is being investigated.
