Moses Adeoye, treasurer of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti, has been killed by suspected gunmen at his residence.

TheCable gathered that Adeoye was murdered Wednesday evening in Otun, Moba local government area of the state.

A source who spoke to TheCable said the gunmen didn’t take any of his valuables or properties.

Confirming the incident, Caleb Ikechukwu, Ekiti state police public relations officer, said an investigation has commenced on the matter.

He said: “The state police headquarters is aware of it already and we have started our investigation to make you we apprehend all the perpetrators of this act.

“We commiserate with his family and assured the people of Ekiti state that the police is on top of this matter.”

The deceased is the immediate past APC chairman of Moba local government area.

Another APC chieftain in the state, Olubunmi Ojo, was on August 10 murdered in Ado-Ekiti by unknown gunmen.

Ojo was a former personal assistant to Segun Oni, ex-governor of Ekiti.
