Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa, a lawyer and human rights activist, says the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) will demand at least N5 billion in compensation for the family of Bolanle Raheem.

Raheem, a Lagos-based lawyer, was shot dead in an incident involving a police officer, now identified as Drambi Vandi, around the Ajah axis of Lagos state on Sunday.

In a statement on Thursday, Adegboruwa said he would be representing the NBA Lagos branch in court, adding that the association would demand monetary compensation from the Lagos government, the federal government and the police.
