“From what I learnt, they were coming from the party around 9pm on Tuesday, June 6, when his car was stopped by some men. As he was demanding their identity and why they came after him, he was shot and killed. The killers then drove away his car with other occupants while the corpse was left at the scene,” Nike stated.

She further said, “When they got to a location on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, they stopped and left them (other occupants in the car) there. They did not take away the car. They just told the people left in the car that they had achieved their aim. So, it was like an assassination.”
