"It was discovered that he was shot on the head."

The Police spokesperson, who said that the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Tuesday Assayomo, has directed discreet investigation into the matter, added that, "I can tell you that investigation is on high gear. The shells of the bullet used in killing the deceased have been recovered and the corpse has been deposited at the UITH for postmortem.

He also said that men of the Nigeria Police have already been deployed to strategic places in the metropolis, including worship centres, to prevent such reoccurrence, assuring residents to go about their lawful businesses.
