She said, “Today, at about 1.30 a.m. one Ismail Azeez of No.5 Olofa Street, Ofatedo came to the Ido Osun Police Division Headquarters to report a case of attack and killing at his residence.

“He reported that about 12.00 a.m. of the same day, a group of suspected cultists, numbering three, invaded his residence and called out the victim, Yinusa Okunloye, from his room and thereafter shot him in the chest.”

Opalola said the victim died on the spot and his corpse was removed by the police and deposited at Uni Osun Teaching Hospital in Osogbo, for autopsy.
