An Ibadan socialite, Olaleye Ajibola, otherwise called Gatuso, had been reportedly killed by some yet-to-be-identified gunmen.
Ajibola was said to have been attacked on Saturday evening by the suspected armed robbers at Town House Hotel in Oyo State.
It was gathered that Gatuso arrived at the hotel to have a good time with some of his friends when he ran into the armed robbers who were just leaving the hotel premises.
The robbers were said to have successfully completed an operation in the hotel, carting away valuables belonging to staff and guests when they sighted Gatuso making a call.
He was gunned down at a close range, sources told our correspondent.
His body has since been deposited in the mortuary.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Oyo State Command, Olugbenga Fadeyi, in a reaction to our correspondent, said, “Teslim Akinpelu, a.k.a Gatuso was shot dead by four armed men at Town Hotel, NTC, Iyaganku at about 12:45 am. They pretended to be lodgers before carrying out their evil intention.”.
