According to reports from Naija News, the incident occurred on the night of Friday, April 19, and has now led to the apprehension of a key suspect.

During the distressing event, nine masked assailants stormed the event center around 9:30 pm, unleashing gunfire indiscriminately and attempting to abduct attendees.

Yinka Olowojobi, a lecturer at Babcock University, tragically lost his life after being fatally shot in the chest while bravely resisting the kidnappers.

In addition to the lecturer’s untimely demise, two individuals were abducted from the scene, one of whom has been identified only as Dare, a manager at a car stand.

Omolola Odutola, the spokesperson for the Ogun State Police Command, provided insight into the incident and subsequent police actions.

“Eyewitnesses reported the presence of eight men dressed in black and armed with firearms, who suddenly appeared at the lounge and commenced indiscriminate firing,” Odutola disclosed.

The apprehended suspect, identified as Awada Ishaya, was employed as a security officer at the event center, which had only commenced operations two weeks prior to the incident.

Ishaya, a native of Plateau State, was taken into custody following the observation of suspicious activities linked to him. “The police acted on red flags and subjected him to detailed interrogation,” the spokesperson added.

As investigations progress, the police are diligently pursuing leads to locate the remaining suspects involved in the attack and to ensure the safe release of the abducted victims.

Authorities also encourage individuals with pertinent information regarding the incident to come forward and assist in the apprehension of the remaining perpetrators.
