A yet to be identified student of Yaba College of Technology has been shot dead by suspected cultists in the institution.
LEADERSHIP gathered that he was shot dead in the late hours of Thursday by the assailants.
Students of the institution, told our correspondent that it was a case of cult attack, as the student was shot twice while others took to their heels.
A student of Yabatech that simply wants to be identified as Julius, said, ” I heard the shot twice but never thought it was within the school until I saw students who ran towards my direction that I had to run for my safety dear life”
He added that ” All I wanted to do is get food outside of the campus and dash in but I didn’t feel hungry when I heard a student was shot . This is the type of killing that I hope I will never experience before leaving the institution.
Another student who spoke on condition of anonymity said, “I am scared of staying on campus as I don’t know if the killers are among the students right now or another occurrence will happen”
Although our quest to speak with the school authority has not been fruitful but the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin confirmed the story as he said, the DPO has already visited the scene to confirm that the incident was true.
Hundeyin added that further reports will be released after investigations have been conducted.
