Police arrest 11 over Bayo Ajia, Ajikobi's assassinations

Date: 2016-01-20

Kwara State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Sam Okaula, has said that two political thugs were killed, Monday, by suspected cultists in Ilorin, noting that 11 suspects had been arrested in connection with both killings.

According to him, Bukola Ajikobi was killed a few hours before Bayo Ajia.

Okaula, who disclosed this at police headquarters during a briefing, noted that his men had been strategically positioned at various flash points in Ilorin to avert any reprisal attack.

Vanguard gathered that the late Bayo Ajia, who was always with his lieutenants, was unusually alone yesterday when he was killed by the assailants.

The late Ajia, according to Vanguard investigations, was at his car wash centre at Taiwo area of Ilorin, ruminating with his members over the killing of Bukola Ajikobi, before leaving for Kwara Stadium, a short distance away.

Vanguard also gathered that Ajia was at the stadium when a familiar voice called him on phone to meet him in his car wash centre for a business.

It was learned that as soon as the deceased was sighted by his assailants, they boarded taxis, headed straight for him, shooting him three times on the forehead.

Vanguard further gathered that when the gunshots seemed not to be having the desired effect, the assailants brought out axes and machetes, with which they killed him.
