Young 15 year old boy and keke man shot dead in lagos.
A young boy named Pelumi and a Keke man named Aloma were shot dead in Lagos by some soldiers. Pelumi, who was only 15 years old, was on his way to buy drinks so he and his friends could celebrate his birthday when he was hit by the bullet.
This incident took place around Makoko in Yaba, Lagos state.
The soldiers arrived at the location and began to shoot and it was there this boy was hit.
The residents in that neighborhood spoke up and said those soldiers who came were hired by thugs and this was a political issue between two different parties. Community members mentioned a clash between these two parties which could have led to this shooting and the untimely death of Pelumi and Aloma.
The keke man, Aloma was also killed in his own case, it seems like he was mistaken to be someone else whom the soldiers were targeting and they shot him dead. Aloma was said to be at the park looking for passengers when he was killed.
From what members of the community said, this fight has been ongoing for sometime but today took a turn for the worse.
A boy named Azeez also spoke regarding the accident. Azeez happens to be Pelumi’s older brother. He was informed of his brother's demise while he was with his friends and he rushed to the scene and from there other members of the community joined him to take the little boy to the hospital but he died while being transferred to another hospital.
Sources say the two victims of this unfortunate situation have been buried.
