βYes, Iβm presently at Apomu. I have not been in Ife since yesterday. They were coming from Ibadan but (were) attacked in between Asejire and Apomu by armed robbers. While they attacked all the vehicles on the road at that time, he was singled out. They picked him and took him away,β Mr Oyatokun said.
βHis wife is also here with us and weβve been able to report the case and the police are on top of the situation. So, Iβm here in Apomu to take the madam (wife of the victim) to Ife because she was also there during the attack.β
