According to a source, the deceased attempted to escape from the scene but was overpowered by the opponents who left him in his pool of blood after confirming that he was dead.
The source said the killing may be connected with the murder of one Babatunde Adeluka Olubasa, from Akungba Akoko community, who was shot dead by some gunmen at a hotel in Akure, the state capital on Boxing day. Read HERE
