Following the sad and painful murder of video director Sesan & Beat FM OAP Fade Ogunro’s father, family sources have shed light on how the murder occurredA family source told PM News the deceased had prepared to leave the event around past 9 p.m when his assailants accosted him.
He had come out of the event, only to find that his family members, who came in a Toyota Yaris car were engaged in an argument with some people who were demanding for phones and money. When he moved closer, the hoodlums faced him also asking for his car keys, phones, money. Ogunro’s hesitation to succumb to their demands was thought to have infuriated his attackers who eventually shot him at close range.

After the attack, the killers were said to have thrown out Ogunro’s son and grandchildren from the rear of the car before speeding off.

Reports also has it that the slain Ogunro was first rushed to Lagoon Hospital on Obafemi Awolowo Way, Ikeja before he was transported in an ambulance to the hospital’s headquarters in Apapa for special attention.
“You know because he was shot with a dane gun, the pellets spread all around his stomach and perforated his internal organs. So the hospital manager we telephoned requested he was brought to Apapa for specialist’s attention,” Ogunro reportedly battled to live and was speaking to those around him until he gave up few hours later. While the Police have not spoken on their investigation, many, including Ogunro’s family believed it was a robbery.
