Just as many are anticipating the week-long Sallah celebrations, the family of late Mr Azeez Ibrahim wouldn’t be taking part in this sacred event joyfully as they hoped- An indiscriminate shooting in Shomolu area of Lagos led to the death of their own ward; who was shot in the arm, and died some hours later in a gutter infront of his residence.

Recently, the people of Shomolu have been experiencing
recurring fights between cult members within the vicinity, with robbery activities also present; it has been torrid times for them.
Ibrahim, whom many observed to be friendly and warm, ended
up being the victim of this rather irrelevant cult blitzkrieg.
On that night, October 11, the victim was apparently heading
out of his home to buy something, unknown to him that it was his last night on earth.

According to a close source who witnessed the tragic event, the bandits drove into his street and started shooting sporadically, and one of the live bullets met Mr Azeez on his arm, very close to a gutter. Due to the excruciating pain from the wound, he opted to fall into a nearby gutter to avoid being hit by another bullet. That move was indeed fruitless, as he ended up hitting his nose on the tarmac before falling into the chute.

Albeit, he didn’t die immediately from that collision, the late
discovery of his body by the concerned searchers resulted to
his death.
He was discovered 3 hours after being shot.
