The Lagos State High Court sitting in Ikeja has convicted two members of a group of pipeline vandals for the 2015 murder of seven Department of State Security (DSS) operatives in the Ishawo area of Ikorodu.

Justice Hakeem Oshodi, in his judgment, held that the prosecution, which is the Lagos State Government, proved the offence of conspiracy to commit murder, murder, and possession of firearms with intent to commit a felony against the first defendant, Clement Ododomu.

The judge also said the second defendant, Tiwei Monday, was convicted of conspiracy to commit murder and failure to report a felony.

The offences contradict Sections 223 and 298 (3) of the Criminal Law, Cap. C. A Vol. 3, laws of Lagos State 2015.

The court, however, adjourned the sentencing of the convicts to November 14th.
