Esa-Oke Killing: ‘My Husband Was Shot in My Presence and That of My Child’ — Wife Narrates How Aderogba Was Killed

The wife of slain Accord youth leader, Aderogba, has narrated the tragic circumstances surrounding her husband’s death, alleging that he was shot in her presence and that of their child by suspected political attackers in Esa-Oke, Osun State.

According to her, the incident occurred while she was with her husband, adding that the attackers first shot at him before subjecting him to further attacks.
She alleged that the killers arrived at the scene in a Sienna bus and that her husband was attacked by men dressed in black outfits.

“My husband was shot by men in black suits. When the bullet did not penetrate, Oladapo Fakunle removed the bag on my husband’s neck and the men in suits fired another round of shots which hit him alongside machete attacks and others,” she narrated.

The widow said her husband died before they could get him to the hospital, describing the incident as a painful experience that happened before her and her child.

She made the disclosure when Governor Ademola Adeleke visited the family in Esa-Oke to condole with them over the killing.
