Some gunmen, who disguised as customers, stormed ikorodu Neighbour hood and killed a fashion designer by the name Segun and a mechanic.
Punch Metro learnt that the four attackers, went to Seguns shop in Lemo compound on Saturday around 12pm with a big stone in their bag and killed the fashion designer.
It was gathered that after killing Segun, the gunmen went to Allison Street and murdered a mechanic, whose name had yet to be ascertained.
They were said to have asked the mechanic to fix their faulty motorcycle when they shot him dead.
When Punch Metro got to the area on Monday, Seguns younger brother, Abiodun, said the gunmen warned his brothers apprentice in the shop to cooperate, or else they would also kill her.
He said, “It was exactly at 20 minutes to 12pm that we heard the gunshots. My brother was in his shop. He was working when the four men walked in like customers, and pointed guns at him.
“There was a woman and a little girl in the shop with him. The gunmen warned the woman that if she made any noise, they would kill her and the girl. After killing my brother, they started shooting into the air.
“Segun was married with two children. His wife and children have been taken to a safe place. He grew up in this compound and had been working here for as long as I can remember. The assailants walked in like customers.”
The woman, who was in the shop, said, “The four men had guns. One of them also carried a big stone in a polythene bag. As they shot Segun, they hit his head with the stone.”
The police are on the trail of the culprit
