Olaegbe, who was the Baale (village head) of Oke-Oha, was reportedly attacked on his farm on Wednesday.

The Ogun State Police Command has confirmed the killing of Ogunleye Olaegbe, a 49-year-old traditional chief, by suspected herdsmen at Oke-Oha Village in the Imeko Afon Local Government Area.

Olaegbe, who was the Baale (village head) of Oke-Oha, was reportedly attacked on his farm on Wednesday.

However, the villagers discovered his lifeless body in a pool of blood around noon, with signs indicating he had been shot multiple times, dragged from his farm, and left in a nearby bush.


Residents described the killing as part of an alarming pattern of violent attacks allegedly carried out by herdsmen in the area.

In a statement released by the spokesperson for tthe Ogun State command, SP Omolola Odutola, said the Traditional Chief was attacked by unidentified gunmen, suspected to be herdsmen while working on his farm.

According to Odutola, an assessment of the crime scene indicated that the community chief had been shot in the chest before being left in the bush.


“A community member alerted the Imeko Police Division about the incident. Ogunleye Olaegbe, aged 49, the Baale of C.A.C. Oke-Oha Village, was attacked by unidentified gunmen, suspected to be herdsmen while working on his farm.



“Upon receiving the report, policemen and other security personnel proceeded to the crime scene. On arrival, it was discovered that during the attack, he had been dragged from his farm into a nearby bush, where he was shot in the chest, resulting in his death.

She noted that some photographs were taken, and the corpse was evacuated to the Ayetoro General Hospital mortuary for an autopsy.

“A preliminary investigation has commenced, and efforts are in top gear to apprehend the perpetrators. The area is under close surveillance to prevent any breakdown of law and order,” Odutola added.

If you cannot speak loud when people are killed in Benue, then don't speak loud on the East.

All these killings in the Nigeria should stop.

Herdsmen killed a traditional ruler in the South West and it is all peaceful. UGM shoots in the air at Nnewi and the emergency lovers of the South East from the South West will have cried more than the bereaved till it is 20 pages.
