Gunman trying to load gun mistakenly shoots self
A suspected cultist, Jinai Sunday, reportedly shot himself in the arm while attempting to load and remove a live cartridge from a locally-made pistol in Ogun State.
The Amotekun Corps in the state, according to the Daily Post, said that the “pistol accidentally exploded, resulting in serious injuries on his left arm.”
Ogun Amotekun Corps Commander, CP David Akinremi (rtd), said Sunday and other accomplices, who are “members of Aiye Cult group” were at their usual meeting in a bush located along Kakanfo village in Obada-Owode, Imeko-Afon Local Government Area of Ogun State, when the incident happened.
A member of the gang named Ogundele Elijah, (alias Ogun 07) who confessed to being an ex-convict, having been served six months sentence in Ilaro Correctional Centre for cultism, was later arrested based on earlier confession by the first two suspects.
