“The representative of the youth in the committee, Abdulwaheed Odunuga is chairman, while Mr. Adeoba Adewale, the Chief Security Officer, Agboyi-Ketu is Secretary,” Oshinowo said.

According to him, an independent body will investigate all the victims of the violence and make recommendations to him on ways to disburse the amount among the victims.

Oshinowo added that some friends of the council had also promised to support the initiative to assist those who lost lives and livelihoods to the violence.

He said that other members of the committee are : Mr Raheem Olarenwaju, Secretary-General, Owode Onirin Iron Market Association and Mr. Adebisi Adeniyi, a CDA Chairman.

Also, Rev. P. B. Ojo, Chairman, Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Agboyi-Ketu Chapter, Imam Sulaimon, League of Imams and Mr Adeniyi Akintola, Chairman, Lagos State Council of Tradesmen and Artisans (LASCOTA), Agboyi-Ketu Chapter.

Others are Chief Issa Akinola, the Balogun of Ketu, and Mr Stephen Ndubueze, Community Leader and Real Estate Consultant.

Oshinowo said that membership of the committee cut across all sections and groups in the area to ensure credibility and transparency.
