Baga Eriyo community, in Sagamu Local Government area of Ogun State was turned in mourning over killing of expectant father 28years old ,Olayinka Rashidi by notorious armed gangs known as Eleda boys.

The deceased was one of the surveyor with Omo Lamina Global Ventures Limited in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State before he was attacked at a burial ceremony.

It was gathered that the deceased with his friends, James Anthony, went for a burial ceremony in the Baga Eriyo community when they were attacked unfortunately he was unable to make it before he passed on,his friend narrowly escaped the attacked .

His friend narrating the incident that took place that unfaithful day;said we want to condole with Eriyo family who was bereaved and that day was the 8th day Fidua burial ceremony according to Muslim rite, I’m just lucky to be alive today, the way this gang groups attacked us and at the process my friend lost his life I can’t explained but it was God almighty that saved me.

According to him, “On the 17th of August, 2023, being the 8th day Fidau prayer for the Secretary of the Eriyo family who passed on . When we got to the venue many people were already there which we joined.

“Not up to an hour some boys came with motorcycles, all armed with different types of weapons arrived some persons were afraid already but I didn’t know we were their target. Even were we sat some of them are also members of the attacked group,he said

 

Categorically if you asked me what went wrong at the venue because when got there we never sensed any form of danger the whole thing is still not clear to me because this gangs works for Ganiu Lateef, popularly known as Eleda with my knowledge we don’t have any problem with them.

“About thirty of the gang group when they arrived at the venue one Kazeem Okaka, Sola Alagbaja, a.k.a SS, Idris Mashanwo a.k.a Aloma and others wanted to dragged us out but I was able to struggled off and escaped inside the bush and watched them from there while they shot the deceased with their gun before he gave up. Honestly one of them, Okaka, was not happy that i escaped the attacked

Our correspondent gathered that the deceased had escaped from this same gang group who abducted him some months ago,but people identified them and the abduction was reported at Zone 2 police command before he regained freedom.

The incident has been confirmed by a Police source that investigations is going to arrest the groups.
