Gunmen reportedly kill vigilante head in Ogun

Gunmen have killed one Muhammed Oke, a leader of the vigilante group in Isaga/Ilewo-Orile in Abeokuta-North Local Government Area of Ogun State,

Ā 

The slain vigilante leader was killed around 8:30 a.m on Thursday, after he received a distress call.

Ā 

Oke was also the ward 15 chairman of African Democratic Congress, Isaga/Ilewo-Orile in the council.

Ā 

Confirming the incident on Saturday, the Police Public Relations Officer of the State Command, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said the police has commenced investigation into the incident.

Ā 

Oyeyemi said, ā€œIt’s true he was killed. What I heard is that some people said they saw some gunmen hiding at a place and they now called the man, since he is a vigilante in the community; so they went there to attack those gunmen.

Ā 

ā€œOn getting there, the gunmen had laid ambush for them and that’s how he got shot. One person died while one was injured.

Ā 

ā€œBut we have commenced an investigation into it.ā€

Ā 

He, however, debunked the claim that it was a case of assassination, saying that the command would not restrict the scope of the investigation.

Ā 

Oyeyemi said the police investigation would unveil the circumstance that led to the death of the vigilante leader.

Ā 

Oyeyemi said, ā€œWe cannot jump into conclusion that it’s an assassination case. When you are jumping into conclusion, the implication is that, your mind will be diverted in the course of investigation.

Ā 

ā€œSo, we don’t speculate until we find out the real fact of the matter. But the fact remains that the man was killed by some gunmen.

Ā 

ā€œI am not aware the man was an ADC chairman. I am not aware of him being a chairman of a political party; I am only aware he is a member of vigilante group and hunter.ā€ CONTINUE READING………………………
