In the early hours of Sunday, gunmen assassinated Mrs. Kitan Oyesiku, also known as "Aunty Kitan," a former employee of Ogun State Television, and her security guard at her home in the Agodo neighborhood along the Abeokuta–Siun–Sagamu Expressway.

According to reports, the deceased's bodies were placed in the State Hospital's morgue in Ijaiye, Abeokuta.

The killings' specifics are still unclear, but an unnamed source told our correspondent, "What we heard was that it was some church members who actually discovered this horrendous incident."

“They had come around to check on Mrs Oyesiku when they did not see her in the church. On getting to her residence, they found out that the security officer had been killed, and they later also saw that the assailants had also killed Mrs Oyesiku. That was how they raised the alarm in the community.”

DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, the state police command's spokeswoman, confirmed the occurrence when called, although he added that the command would soon release an official statement regarding the killings.

Having worked for the state-owned television station before to her retirement, the late Oyesiku was well-known in the media. Colleagues, friends, and state residents are grieving after learning of her passing.
