Former Ikeja council Chairman, Toyin Hamzat, assasinated

Former chairman of Ikeja LGA and and special adviser in the Lagos Ministry of Health, Toyin Hamzat, was shot dead around 9 last night along the Sagamu Expressway, Ogun State while returning from his home in Aiyepe in Ogun State.

The police believe it was an assassination and not robbery because the gunmen didn't take anything from the scene of the incident. Five men have so far been arrested in connection with the murder.

My Lord!!!! This day and age and in Lagos for that matter. I can't believe this. I don't live in naija but I've seen his name a few times. I can't believe this. Nigeria is going to hell one way. Way too many greedy lovers of money in that hell hole

This is unbelievable. Aressted how though? Word of mouth arrest, arrested at the scene or tips from people. This can't be happeneing in eko na

smh said...

May he rip. This is too sad but only God knows whose hands are clean. Probably someone's dad and husband, maybe even son and they just took his life away like that. All in the quest for power and money. Smh

Chief priest said...

Whoever's behind the assasination set the 5 men up as the fall guys,the arresting policemen're part of d ploy.It's a tried n tested modus operandi that buys the real killer/s time to clean up their acts n put enough distance btw them n d dastardly act.

@Ms Really ...pls read the story again..he was killed in Sagamu which is in Ogun state. Use ur map next tym to find out locations to places b4 u open ur mouth and invoke curse on urself oh. And pls neva curse a country that God created cos you cant do beta. And dont be too sure about ur condition...as they say "no condition is permanent". RIP Otunba Oluwatoyin.

Anonymous said...

No one knows the real motive behind his killing but,i can categorically say that he didn't have any political seat at the time of his death and he was not in any political struggle with anybody. Also,not a stupid man - would have avoided any sort of confrontation with any man over a woman.
He was a very dear friend and a close confidant up until the time of his death. Will miss you dearly. May Almighty Allah Grant you AIJANAUH FIDUAS.
