Police Gives Fresh Update On Popular Tech Founder Killed In Fatal Accident


The Lagos State Police Command has reportedly assured the public that a thorough investigation was carried out into the tragic death of Adetunji Opayele, also known as Teejay, co-founder of the tech startup Bumpa.

Opayele, 31, was involved in a fatal accident on March 4, 2025, while riding his power bike home from the gym along Ozumba Mbadiwe Road in Victoria Island, Lagos.

Reports indicate that a driver, Biola Adams-Odutayo, failed to yield while merging onto the expressway, colliding with Opayele and leaving him unconscious on the road.

Shockingly, Adams-Odutayo, identified as a healthcare professional, allegedly refused to assist the injured Opayele, reportedly citing concerns about bloodstains in her car.

Further controversy arose when medical personnel at a nearby hospital allegedly refused to treat him.

He was later admitted to another hospital, where he was pronounced dead after midnight.

Responding to public outcry, Lagos police spokesman Benjamin Hundeyin took to social media platform X on Saturday, assuring that the case had been thoroughly investigated.

He confirmed that Adams-Odutayo was charged in court after being discharged from the hospital.

“We acknowledge public concerns regarding the tragic accident that claimed the life of Adetunji Opayele (Teejay) on March 4, 2025. We extend our deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and all affected by this loss,” Hundeyin stated.

He further confirmed that Adams-Odutayo was arraigned at Tinubu Magistrate’s Court on March 12, 2025, for reckless and careless driving, which resulted in Opayele’s death. She was subsequently granted bail.
