Oba Adeusi reportedly went to Akure for a meeting and on his way back to his hometown, he was attacked.

The King was shot at Elegbeka community along the Ifon-Benin highway.

He was reportedly rushed to Federal Medical Center Owo but sadly, he gave up the ghost.

The bandits kidnapped two people in the king’s convoy and no contact has been made yet.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Tee Leo-Ikoro while confirming the incident to press described it as sad and very unfortunate.

The Ondo State Commissioner of Police Bolaji Salami has directed all police divisions in the area to swing into action and to work with other security agencies to apprehend the bandits and secure the release of the victims.

If a King could be murdered this way, what’s the hope of the common man?

We hope the governor of Ondo state will see to it that the perpetrators of this abominable act are found, arrested and brought to justice.

May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace, Amen.

Meanwhile, Nigeria has Retained It’s Position As Third Most Terrorised Country In The World – For The Sixth Time Since 2014.

The report by the Global Terrorism Index (GTI) stated that the number of deaths attributed to Boko Haram in Nigeria increased by 25 percent from 2018 to 2019, making reference to the deadliest terrorist attack in 2019 when assailants attacked a funeral in Badu, Borno State.

GTI noted that due to the rise in the number of casualties from Boko Haram attacks in the north-east, Nigeria is second to record a fall in violent deaths after Afghanistan in 2019.
