The Osun State Police Command has announced the arrest of Prince Eniola Oyeyode, the son of Ogiyan of Ejigbo, Oba Oyeyode Oyesosin over the killing of US-based Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Richard Idowu Adeoriokin.
Naija News earlier reported that Adeoriokin was shot by a local hunter at Prince Eniola’s residence in Ejigbo town after attending the 50th Coronation Anniversary of the monarch and was rushed to a private hospital where he was confirmed dead.
