Another YABATECH student, Kenneth, shot dead in school premises — second victim in 2 months
An ex-student of the Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH) has been shot dead in what is being attributed to yet another cult clash.
The victim, identified as Kenneth, was gunned down within the school on Tuesday during the student week.
Benjamin Hundeyin, the Lagos police PRO, confirmed the victim was a former YABATECH student to newsmen.
The PPRO said Kenneth, aged about 30, was shot in the chest and died while an effort was in place to save his life.
“It happened at the Liberal Studies department at around 4:45 pm. The victim was taken to the school clinic but later referred to the military hospital in Yaba where he was confirmed dead.
“He was shot in the chest. He has been deposited at the mainland hospital morgue at Yaba. The school apprehended one suspect.
“His name is Adigun Yusuf, aged 31 years. The case has been transferred to the state criminal investigations department for further probe.”
