The Lagos State Command has launched a formal investigation to determine the nature of the object and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The Command Spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, said, “No one is above the law. Pastor Paul Adefarasin has turned himself in at the Lagos State Police Command Headquarters, Ikeja, and he’s currently being interrogated by detectives who have commenced investigation on the case since a video surfaced online showing the pastor holding a g¥n-like object against another road user, while driving in an unregistered vehicle. The outcome of the investigation will be made public.”
