Lagos, Sunday Adejumo, was killed on Friday August 29th
by suspected assassins at a beer parlor on Oyenuga street,
behind St Finbarrs str., Akoka, Lagos.
Adejumo, 50, was drinking with some friends at a beer
parlour called Daniel's Place when three men walked up to
him, dragged him off his chair, stabbed him before they
shot him dead. Continue...
Narrating what transpired the night he was killed, a
resident of the area who spoke anonymously with Punch
said it is believed that he was killed by some cultist
"When the gang got in, they went to where he was
sitting. They had different weapons, ranging from
cutlasses to guns. One of them went to him, hit him in
the chest and he fell down. He then brought out a gun
and shot him point blank. On the table where he was
drinking with his friends were a pay slip, his ATM
cards and his car key.”
Police sources say his body was taken to the Yaba
mortuary. Meanwhile the three friends he went to the beer
parlor with as well as the owner of the beer parlor are now
being interrogated.
Deputy Police Public Relations Officer, Lelma Kolle, said
the unknown gunmen actually tried to escape with the
deceased car after they killed him
"Investigations revealed that the man parked his car
a distance away from where he was drinking. The
police also discovered that there was a blood stain on
the car and the car key was found within the vicinity,
also with blood stains. This can only mean that after
they killed him, they attempted to go away with his
car. They actually succeeded in opening the car
because there were blood stains on the car seat. But
the car did not move because of the security system
in it. The owner of the bar has been arrested and he
has made statements. We cannot categorically say
whether this was a robbery or an assassination plot.
The matter is still under investigation.” he said
The management of the University of Lagos is yet to make
a statement on the incident.
