KILLED FOR PRAYING IN TONGUES DURING A ROBBERY..

A 24-year old undergraduate student, Folajomi
Agunbiade of the Ondo State University, Akungba- Akoko, was shot dead on Thursday, August 22 by armed robbers who were infuriated that she began to pray in tongues as they robbed her family.
Around 9 p.m., two armed robbers stormed the
Agunbiade residence located in the Alasia-
Amosun area of Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State.
A family source said the armed bandits, who
reeked of alcohol, took away six cell phones that
were being charged at the time. The source added that neighbors were unaware of the robbers'
attack because the family's noisy power
generator was running at the time.

According to the source one of the robbers
demanded cash from the student's grandmother,
but the other robber asked him to leave the
woman alone as they had earlier collected about
N20,000 from her.

A police source stated that the robbers ransacked the house and stole cash as well as such
valuables as mobile phones. At one point, said
the source, one of the robbers threatened to shoot Folajomi's elder sister.
All through the assault, Ms. Folajomi Agunbiade
was praying and speaking in tongues. This
reportedly angered one of the robbers who aimed the gun at her and shot. A source said she cried
"Jesus!" before she fell and died.

A family source disclosed that the robbery
ironically took place on the day the deceased's
elder sister ended a three-day fast to ward off
any untimely death based on a revelation she had been given.

It was learnt that the two sisters were living with
their grandmother and a care giver. Ms. Folajomi
was at home due to the on-going strike by the
Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU). The
strike has kept students at home for close to two
months.

The family reportedly called the police at 9.45
p.m., after the armed robbers left. A police source said officers were immediately sent to the
assaulted home after the distress call was
received.

After the robbery, the two-man gang locked their
victims inside the house and went away with the
key. Neighbors were alerted by the cries of the
occupants.

One source said the armed robbers even walked
past some of the residents of the area who even
greeted them without knowing they were armed
robbers.

According to the source, "The sister of the
deceased said that the two armed robbers came
with locally made guns. She said they started
banging their fists on the door and, when the door was opened, they saw that the intruders were
armed robbers."
