Prince Eniola Oyeyode, the son of Ogiyan of Ejigbo, Oba Oyeyode Oyesosin, has been arrested by the Osun State Police Command in connection with the killing of a US-based lecturer, Dr. Richard Idowu Adeoriokin.

The deceased was shot by a local hunter at Prince Eniola's residence in Ejigbo town after attending the 50th Coronation Anniversary of the monarch and was rushed to a private hospital where he was confirmed dead.

Spokesperson of the command, SP Yemisi Opalola, who confirmed the arrest, said Prince Oyeyode instructed one of his civilian guards, Hammed Abdul Jelili, to shoot his double barrel to see if it was working properly.

This is an accident, if any, the guy that fired the gun should be aware of where he was pointing the weapon. The Dr was not in the sky and that was not the instruction the Prince gave ....unless, it is a deliberate act made to look like an accident.
