Hoodlums struck and killed a newspaper agent known as Saheed Eluyera, in Ilesa, Osun State on Monday.

It was gathered that Eluyera had earlier gone to supply newspapers at Wesley Guild Hospital, Ilesa and was returning to his base when some youths attacked him and hacked him to death.

Another agent told our correspondent that Eluyera’s motor cycle broke down while returning and an argument ensued between him and some boys, who eventually hacked him to death.

But the Commissioner of Police in the state, Mr. Fimihan Adeoye, told our correspondent on the telephone that only one person was killed in Osogbo on Saturday.

He said the police were investigating the situation, saying those involved in the killing would be brought to justice.

The CP said he had not been briefed concerning the killing in Ilesa.

Meanwhile, the Peoples Democratic Party has called on the Sevurity agencies in the state to act fast before hoodlums would take over the state.

The spokesperson of the PDP said in a statement on Monday that it was sad that the state capital was witnessing an unprecedented breakdown of the law and order despite the huge amount of money spent on security matters by the state government.

“We call on the Director General of the Department State Services and Inspector General of Police, to take over the security of the state and investigate the matters.
