SARS murder Remo Stars FC player, "Kaka"

Late Late "Kaka"

Members of the Special Anti Robbery Squad from the Ogun State Command have been directly involved in the death of Assistant Captain and Defender of Remo Stars Football Club, Tiyamu Kazeem, popularly known as Kaka.

According to an eyewitness, he claimed that the SARS officer stopped the footballer to label him a Yahoo Boy and insisted on taking him to the nearby police station.



"The SARS officer stopped Tiyamiyu Kazeem insisting that he was a Yahoo Boy, he brought out his identity card to identify himself as a player of Remo Stars FC but the officer insisted on taking him to the nearest police station in Sagamu."

"Tiyamiyu and Sanni obliged, followed the SARS officers, only for them to notice that they were driving towards Sagamu-Abeokuta Expressway, then the guys questioned the officers to know where they were being taken to, but this prompted them to stop the car and push Tiyamiyu out of the car, whereby an unknowing vehicle knocked him down," the eye witness said.

He was immediately rushed to Fakoya Hospital in Sagamu, where it was confirmed that Tiyamiyu Kazeem was no more.
