The incident reportedly occurred in the early hours of Sunday, leaving the community in shock and mourning.
Both victims’ bodies have been deposited at the morgue of the State Hospital, Ijaiye, Abeokuta.
Although details remain unclear, a source who spoke anonymously said church members first raised the alarm after visiting her residence.
The source said, “What we heard was that it was some church members who actually discovered this horrendous incident.”
“They had come around to check on Mrs Oyesiku when they did not see her in the church. On getting to her residence, they found out that the security officer had been killed, and they later also saw that the assailants had also killed Mrs Oyesiku. That was how they raised the alarm in the community.”
The Ogun State Police Command confirmed the incident through its spokesperson, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, who said a formal statement would be released after preliminary findings.
Mrs. Oyesiku, who retired from the state-owned television station, was well known in media circles, and her sudden death has triggered grief among colleagues, friends, and residents of the state.
