In the Ijebu Igbo region of Ogun State, a hunter named Femi was discovered dead from gunshot wounds in a woodland.
Femi allegedly went hunting with one Taoreed on Friday but did not come home, according to information released by the state police public relations officer, Omolola Odutola, on Monday.
The village chief was informed by her that Femi’s wife was worried about his tardiness in coming home.
According to reports, the leader of the village organized a search party to go into the forest, and they discovered his lifeless body there, shot and wounded.
She said, “On 26/10/2024, one Grace James, a female from Ofemodoko village near Ijebu Igbo reported to the station that on 25/10/2024 at about 1700 hours, her husband, Femi, now deceased, went hunting with an individual known as Taoreed aka Kokoro, but failed to return to their village.
“About 0700 hours on 26/10/2024, his disappearance was brought to the attention of the village head who then organised a search with local hunters. During the search, the body of Femi was found in the forest showing bullet wounds on his back with his gun lying on the ground next to him.”
She went on to say that attempts to find Taoreed, who had gone hunting with Femi, were unsuccessful because the community did not contain him, his wife, or his kids.
The PPRO noted that an investigation has commenced into the matter.
“Suspicion was raised when it was discovered that Taoreed, who had gone hunting with the deceased, had fled the village with his wife and children.
“The body was removed and taken to the State Hospital in Ijebu-Ode for autopsy. This case is currently under preliminary investigation,” Odutola said.
