Eyewitnesses were able to count eight men dressed in black and armed with guns emerged from an unknown place into the relaxing lounge and open fire indiscriminately, where one person later identified as a lecturer at Babcock University named Olowojobi Yinka, was shot in the chest, for resisting to go away with the hoodlum, at their prompt, while a manager of a car stand, simply known as Dare “m” the third person is yet to be identified.

A suspicious coincidence led the police to arrest one Awada Ishaya “m” of Plateau State who was employed two weeks ago when the event centre was launched as a security man for further interrogation.
