Newswatch Editor, Toyin Obadina shot by armed men

Obadina

It is sad that deputy editor, Saturday Newswatch newspaper, Mr. Toyin Obadina is gone.
We learnt that the gunmen in two Sport Utility Vehicles blocked his vehicle, ash Toyota Yaris with their vehicles and shot him around 11.30pm on Friday in Ikorodu, a suburb in Lagos State.
The bandits collected his money and shot him in the stomach despite his plea for them not to kill him.
The 50-year-old quiet man and an indigene of Ogun State died at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja on Sunday after a surgery to remove the bullets lodged in his stomach.
He was survived by his wife, three children; the eldest is 12 years, while the youngest is five, age mother and others.
May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
