These are definitely not the best of times for popular broadcaster, Soji Omotayo. The classy freelance presenter on both radio and television stations in the South-Western part of the country was last Saturday night waylaid by some trigger happy armed robbers after he left the premises of LTV 8 where he had gone to present a late night programme, according to reports. And after the men of the highway ordered the two cars conveying him and a handful of his proteges who always followed him around to park while shooting sporadically into the air, they were also commanded to lie facing down on the floor after filing out of the cars.
Meanwhile, all of them were said to have started taking off all the valuables they had on them such as handsets, wristwatches, necklaces, money and the rest of it, and were dropping them on the floor in their lying down posture when one of Soji Omotayo's proteges simply called "No Shaking" rashly stood up and made an effort to run away. But alas, the response of one of robbers to that daring act was fatal as he shot the fleeing guy straight in the head and he reportedly fell and died instantly!
Findings further revealed that, after the murder, the robbers still unrepentantly made away with one of the cars and all the valuables stolen from their victims. It was after the robbers left that the remains of "No Shaking" were said to be taken to the mortuary for enbalment. The police carrying out investigations on the robbery were, however, said to have recovered the stolen car where it was dumped by the robbers, but the robbers were still said to be at large as at the time of this report.
It would be recalled that Soji Omotayo was not too long ago, attacked by a man simply called Agarawu who matchetted him almost to the point of death over an allegation of sleeping with his (Agarawu) wife. It was only the grace of God that spared the presenter's life after the attack. These are indeed, not the best of times for Soji Omotayo.
