Governor Reacts As Gunmen Kill Another Monarch, Abduct Olori

Days after gunmen killed two monarchs in Ekiti, the ravage of the bandits went to Kwara as they reportedly struck Koro town in Ekiti Local Government Area of Kwara State on Thursday and killed the traditional ruler, Oba Segun Aremu-Cole.

GWG gathered that the assailants stormed the palace of the monarch around 7 pm, and fired gunshots which hit the traditional ruler after which they abducted his wife.

Condeming the gruesome murder, the state Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, confirmed the attack late Thursday in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye which read,  “The monarch was reportedly shot dead in his palace on Thursday night by some unknown gunmen, who also whisked away his wife and two others. The governor condemned the development, which he said was reckless, shocking, and abominable.

“He charged the security agencies not to spare any resources to track down the perpetrators, free the spouse and others taken away, and bring them to book. We will certainly get the perpetrators and ensure that this is their last crime against humanity. My profound condolences go to the people of Koro. Our hearts are broken, and we stand by them at this time and always”, the statement said.
