Afeez HanafiOne of the children of popular trado-medical practitioner, Alhaji Fatai Yusuf, said his father was killed hours after he received a call that his workers burnt some important documents in his Igando, Lagos office. The son said the family was notified of the burnt files around 7am on Thursday, about 10 hours before the alternative therapist was killed by some gunmen on the Abeokuta-Igbo-Ora-Iseyin Road, Oyo State. Speaking with our correspondent on Saturday, the son who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the matter, confirmed that Oko Oloyun was buried on Friday evening. He was in a hotel in Ogun State when he got a call from my mother around 7am that some files had been burnt. A Twitter user, Mikhail Barnabas, with the Twitter handle, @barnaby04, said the death of Oko Oloyun had further reinforced the desirability of the South-West security outfit known as Operation Amotekun.
