David Ajobiewe, the Director-General of LACO-FS in Akoko Southwest Local Government, described Abbey's killing as a significant tragedy, emphasizing his non-violent nature and lack of history of disputes.
Confirming the incident, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Funmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, stated that investigations are ongoing to uncover the circumstances surrounding the brutal killing.
"The state command is aware of the incident (killing) but investigation is ongoing to unravel all that happened," she affirmed.
