The panel took the step when the representative of the family, Oluwaseun Olorode informed the court that the petitioner couldn’t appear before the panel because his condition was terrible and they do not even know if he will survive the day.

Olorode told the panel that “I am representing Sesan Opadotun, the petitioner because he is in a dire situation. we do not know if he will survive the day because, since the incident with the police, he had not been healthy. As a family, we have spent all we had and his siblings have become bankrupt because of his situation.

“His aged mother that used to come with me couldn’t come because she has started working as a housemaid somewhere to get money to take care of him and his wife and children who stay with him since we cannot afford hospital bills or medication again.

“We used to take him to UCH but we do not have the financial capacity to do anything that we are asked to do to fight for his health,” he said.

The panel moved by the pathetic situation opadotun was made immediate arrangements to get him medical attention and adjourned the matter till March 24, 2021, for hearing.

Opadotun had filed a petition of police brutality against the Commissioner of Police in Oyo state in a matter delineated OYJPPB/019.
