According to Champion Newspaper, Johnson had
reportedly gone to the brothel located at Akinbo
Street in the area and requested to have sex
with a prostitute » but the lady refused.
He then approached another prostitute and met
with the same rejection and this angered him so
much that he resorted to violence and beat them
up, injuring some of them in the process, before
escaping from the scene.
One of the victims who identified herself as Gloria
Francis said she was badly injured after Johnson
threw an iron chair on her which left her with a
deep gash on her leg.
The matter was reported at Tolu Police Station
and Johnson was later arrested and taken to the
station.
At the station, he reportedly told police that the
sex workers in the hotel conspired against him and
whenever he went there to have sex with any of
them, they will deny him.

refuse to service him due to his history of having
sex with them and refusing to pay the agreed
amount and whenever they complained, he would
become violent.
The police charged him to court with conduct likely
to cause a breach of public peace and assault
under the Criminal Code.
