A son of Alhaji Yusuf OkonOloyun, an alternative medicine practitioner murdered last week, has spoken about the circumstances surrounding his death.
He confirmed that some people burnt some financial records of one of Oko Oloyun’s businesses hours before he was killed.
Besides, the son who spoke with ‘Sunday Punch’ on condition of anonymity said the deceased aimed at attending a programme in Akure, Ondo State the day he was killed.
He was quoted as saying: “I was in the school when I got a call that my father was shot. On getting home, I learnt he is dead.”
“The investors know him well and trust he would never steal their money. He was open and there were times he would call us (his children) and tell us what was going on. He engaged an auditor in December 2019 who discovered that there was a fraud.
“In the morning of the day he was assassinated, some of his workers set fire to important office records. He was in a hotel in Ogun State when he got a call from my mother around 7am that some files had been burnt. I don’t know the amount involved in the fraud but it must be something huge for those involved to return.”
