A 30-year-old man, Olamide Akinolu, has been pronounced dead following an assault by unknown individuals at Osas Hotel, in the Wadoye community of Ifo Local Government Area in Ogun State.
Gistmania reported that Akinolu went to the hotel to meet a man he had paid N50,000 to rent musical instruments, where he was allegedly attacked by unidentified suspects.
The incident occurred at approximately 12:40 p.m. on Tuesday.
On Wednesday, the state’s police spokesperson, Omolola Odutola, confirmed the situation, saying the victim’s father reported the incident to the Command’s Ajuwon division.
Odutola stated that the victim was transported to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.
She said, “He sustained serious injuries and was taken to the hospital, where the doctor pronounced him dead.
“This prompted a group of people to organise an attack on the hotel.
