Adedoyin’s lawyer urges public to disregard report on CCTV

Abiodun Williams, one of the counsel to the owner of Hilton Hotel, Ile-Ife, Dr. Ramon Adegoke, has urged the public to disregard the latest alarm by an Ibadan-based broadcaster, Oriyomi Hamzat that he had gained access to a CCTV footage showing how Timothy Adegoke, the OAU Masters degree student, was allegedly murdered at Hilton Hotel.

Hamzat in a video said Adedoyin, his son, Roheem Adedoyin and one Moshood allegedly entered the room where Adegoke was logged around 12am and came out with wrapped item moments later.

Williams described Mr Hamza’s story as “another lie from the pit of hell by a self-styled human rights advocate who has been inciting the public against Dr. Ramon Adedoyin, the proprietor of Hilton Hotel.”

Williams said the police has not released any official statement on the outcome of their investigations so far, adding that Dr. Adedoyin was not in the hotel at the time of the incident and could not have been seen on any CCTV footage.

“We are aware that Mr Hamzat has spread so many wicked and ugly contradictory tales against Dr. Adedoyin and his family since the unfortunate death of Mr. Adegoke.

"We urge the public not to believe any of the lies, but allow the police to conclude their investigations to unravel the cause of Mr, Adegoke’s death and bring the culprits to justice.

“We will also like to remind Hamzat that only a properly constituted court of competent jurisdiction can pronounce an individual guilty of an offence of murder or any other offence at all; and this should be based on established facts and credible evidence; and not through wicked social media speculations, manipulations and concocted lies.”

Mr. Williams said the Adedoyin family has noted Hamzat’s “wicked lies and constant criminal defamations” and machinery has been set in motion to seek legal redress at the appropriate time.
