Following gunshots that erupted during Governor Ademola Adeleke’s visit to the Ataoja of Osogbo’s palace, one person was reportedly killed in the Ita-Olokan area of Osogbo.

The governor had, in the company of his nephew, David Adeleke, popularly called Davido, paid a courtesy visit to the monarch but a clash ensued between two groups outside the palace which resulted in an exchange of gunfire.

The governor’s security team intervened by shooting sporadically into the air, as well as using tear gas to disperse the daring thugs before the governor’s convoy could leave the palace.

In a post on X, Davido wrote, “It was a fight outside the palace that had nothing to do with us! The pple love excellency!”
