The Police Public Relations Officer
(PRO) of Ogun Police Command, DSP Muyiwa Adejobi, in a telephone conversation
confirmed the killing of the lecturer.
The PRO stated the command was on
the trail of the killers who escaped through a nearby bush:
“We are already working on some
leads; the police engaged the criminals when they arrived at the scene and some
were believed to have sustained injuries in the duel. We combed the area and
found some blood stains which we hope will help in this case.
“The police command is seriously
investigating this case and the suspects will be brought to justice,” DSP
Muyiwa Adejobi stated.
The PRO also urged medical doctors
in the state to alert the command in case they spot anyone with gunshot wounds
in their hospitals.
At the same time, lecturers are
returning back to work at OOU in compliance with the decision of the national
secretariat of Academic Staff Union of Universities.
