Posted on February 7, 2013 by Naija Gists 7 Comments Feb 7, 2013 – Chief Kayode Adeshina, Onimole Of Lagos Killed At His Palace In Isale Eko

A Lagos white cap chief and the Onimole of Lagos, Chief Kayode Adeshina, 73, has been shot dead, by unidentified gunmen.

We gathered that Chief Adeshina was killed at 3 a.m today in his palace at 5, onimole Palace, Iga Idugaran Street, Isale Eko, Lagos Island, southwest Nigeria.

One of his children who was in the palace when he was killed, Oyindamola Ikuforiji disclosed that the gunmen came around 3 a.m and went straight to Chief Adeshinaâs room..

âThey held him down and pointed a gun at his head, andÂ  asked him for money but he told them that he doesnât have money but his phone.

âThey took the phone and shot him. Baba was shouting for help as he bleed but nobody came to his rescue. I was scared, I couldnât do anything.I was transfixed, the men were shouting at me and my sister. We couldnât do anything.

âWhen they were going, they shut all the doors and took the keys away. They later came back to see Baba bleeding and left.

âBy the time helpers came and forced the door open, Baba had lost so much blood.

âWhen we took him to a private hospital, doctors confirmed him dead, adding that he had lost so much blood,â the lady narrated.

The eldest daughter of the deceased, Mrs. Mosaku Abiola also told P.M.NEWS that she cannot say whether her fatherâs killing had to do with murder or robbery.

She said police investigation will determine that. But she confirmed that her grandmotherâs clothes were taken away by the gunmen.

As at the time of filing this report, sympathisers and traditional title holders in Lagos, including the Obanikoro of Lagos, were in the palace of the deceased consoling members of his family. (source)
