News: Oba Adeosun Escaped Assassination In His Palace
A popular maxim has it that the rich also cry. The reality of this
recently played itself out in Ogun State as a traditional ruler, the
Aga-Olowo in Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State, Oba
Abdulrasheed Adeosun, narrowly escaped death when he was attacked by a
gang of suspected assassins which stormed his palace in the wee hours
penultimate Sunday.
Narrating his scary experience, the embattled Oba said he had to escape through the back door of his palace barefooted and without his royal paraphernelia. Thereafter, he trekked about 32 kilometres in the bush to safety. The Oba’s near-death experience can only but convince all and sundry that even traditional rulers in Ogun State are no longer immune to the problems of insecurity ravaging the gateway state.
