Stray Bullet Kills Lady In Lagos As Thug Fires Shots To Celebrate Election Victory (Photos)

A 27-year-old woman identified as Halimat Aboaba, has been shot dead by a political thug on Abeokuta Street, behind the Agege Stadium, in the Agege Local Government Area of Lagos State, IGBERETV reports.

The deceased, popularly known as Aboaba Portable, was said to be a member of an All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign group in Agege.

According to report, the thug identified as Adedeji, aka Skye, and other hoodlums were celebrating the victory of a political party on the 2023 presidential elections, when he suddenly brought out a gun and started shooting indiscriminately.

In the process, one of the stray bullets reportedly hit Abowaba, who was in front of her mother’s drinking joint on Abeokuta Street.

A resident, Gbenga Samuel, said one of the bullets from Adedeji’s gun hit one of Abowaba’s laps, adding that neighbours and family members rushed her to the Ifako Ijaiye Teaching Hospital in a desperate bid to save her life.

Upon getting to the hospital, Samuel said medical workers, after assessing the degree of the injury sustained, referred her to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital but she bled to death.

“One of the political thugs in Agege named Adedeji, aka Skye, while celebrating the victory of his party on election day, started shooting indiscriminately and one of the stray bullets hit a lady, Halimat Abowaba, in her lap,” he said.

"Adedeji was drunk when he started shooting. The incident happened around 6pm and the lady was rushed to the Ifako Ijaiye Teaching Hospital, when they got there, she was referred to the LASUTH but the lady died in the early hours of Sunday. Halimat died because she lost a lot of blood. The bullet shattered her lap.

"Her mother runs a beer parlour. I am speaking out because in cases like this, politicians will do everything to sweep it under the carpet, especially because this is an election period. I am not sure the family reported the matter to the police.”

Explaining further, Samuel said Adedeji had gone into hiding after perpetrating the crime, adding that Abowaba’s family, who initially wanted justice for her, had accepted the events that led to her death as the will of God.

“Adedeji has been on the run; the incident that claimed the life of the lady happened around 6pm and a lot of people witnessed it. Adedeji was the only armed person among all those political thugs celebrating the victory of the party on the day of the presidential and National Assembly elections on Saturday,” he added.

"People alongside the victim’s mother shouted that political thugs killed Halimat. I learnt that the victim’s family members wanted justice and were willing to take up the matter but later on, we started hearing that they are no longer going ahead with the case.”

Speaking on the incident, Abowaba’s sister, Aisha, said she was not at home at the time her sister was shot and that when she returned, she met her family members crying over her sister’s death.

Aisha, who was unwilling to give an account of the events that claimed her sister’s life because she was not around when the incident happened and because she was still mourning, handed the phone to their mother

The bereaved mother said she had accepted her daughter’s death as the will of God, adding that no matter what she did, it could not bring her dead daughter.

"Please, we don’t have anything to do or say. It is God that will judge them. All the explanations you want me to narrate cannot bring back my dead daughter. Whatever we do, it cannot bring Halima back. I leave everything to God,” she said.

Being a Nigerian is a weapon fashioned against me

Not again....

Mc OLuomo and he's urchins again

This is bad, celebrating with ruffians and firebrands is unwise, she died for nothing.

So sad RIP.

The person who fired the shot should be arrested and sentenced for life

May her soul rest in peace.

Political thugs in Lagos always go scot-free after committing a murderous crime.
If tinubu is sworn in they will become bandits.

Having Tinubu as president will make that weapon prosper.

Of course it was only touts that celebrated Tinubu's win.

No normal person did.

I had said it was fascinating that no life was lost during the elections. It's very rare.

Alas, it seems I spoke too soon.

Skype, the stupid thug apparently has a conscience and has gone into hiding. Her death will haunt him for the rest of his life. It was purely unintentional.
