A member of the Oodua People's Congress (OPC), Rafiu Akinwale, has allegedly killed an Akure Prince, Adesoji Adesida, in Ondo State, IGBERETV reports.

According to report, the incident occurred at a funeral held at the Dome in Akure on Friday, April 28, 2023.

Akinwale, who also came to the funeral, was reportedly beating his girlfriend over an accusation that she was exchanging phone numbers with another man.

It was gathered that an attempt by Adesida to prevent Akinwale from beating the girlfriend did not go down well with the OPC member, who out of anger, reportedly pushed the prince. He was said to have slumped.

An eyewitness, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the victim was rushed to the hospital where he was confirmed dead. He further said that the suspect has been arrested by the policemen at Ala station in Akure.

Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the State Police Command, Funmilayo Odunlami-Omisanya, said investigation was ongoing on the case.

She added that the suspect was still in police custody where he was being interrogated by detectives.

A cousin to the deceased, Prince Stephen Adeyinka Adeyinka, also confirmed the incident in a Facebook post on Monday, May 1, 2023. His post read;

“Prince Adesoji Adesida was killed in Akure by an OPC member Rafiu Akinwale (a.k.a Slow) from ibadan last Friday during a funeral ceremony of our beloved family member.

I thought respect for elders is sacrosanct in those parts?

After I watched one short video where a guy pulled a jiu jitsu move on someone in the street and killed him cold, I made the decision to by all means avoid fights, brawls and altercations.

Also, though unpopular, I do not meddle in people's fights or try to be peace maker, every adult has the faculty to choose between right and wrong. So if an adult chooses to go into a rage, hell no way I'm playing UN.

Same thing with a woman in an abusive relationship, except you expressly call for my help, I'll never be caught doing the work of onyeoma Eliza.

Nor be everyone when wear clothes get life avoid trouble.

Ehyaa

R.I.P

So sad. This Baba for just maintain him lane jejely.
Rip.

Not all troubles one must get involved in

Opc??


Hmm...where are the blind batists here??

It was out of anger, it was not intentional. I just need to say this before some political spinners will arrive.

What are the duties of a Prince?

If a Prince shies away from making peace and reconciling warring parties, his title is worthless and redundant.

He died on active duty.

always mind ur business,if the said man had minded his business,i believed he will still be alive by now

damn! just 1 push o

Igbese re. Very painful and avoidable death.

And the more painful thing is that the OPC guy may be a riff raff, thug and agbero. They always use juju and voodoo to fight

Gobe

The earlier you realize some people are walking dead, the better for you.

Reason i always avoid trouble at all cost, because Life is so Sweet and full of paparazzi.

My freedom is my number one priority.

No girlfriend know peace.

Anger is bad

Even if your gf exchange numbers with another man, a sensible man will keep his calm and question the lady after the party. It would have been better to end the relationship with the said lady instead of fighting her.

No matter whatever, he will spend some years behind bars and also spend lots of money to get himself out if this trouble while the lady already moved on with her life

OPC is the same as IPOB.


Yoruba terrorist organisation

Nawttiboi007:

Minding your business

Ok

But you were comfortable perpetuating injustice against another tribe. Why you no want make OPC do their own injustice?

You no want make obidients get justice but you dey cry for justice?
