Popular PoS operator gunned down in his shop, money carted away
A popular Point of Sale (PoS) operator has been shot dead by gunmen around Adebayo Area, Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti state capital.
The deceased simply identified as Alfa was killed by the assailants on Thursday in his shop located after the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH).
The incident happened four days after two gunmen killed Okada riders’ ticketing officer around Okesa Area of Ado-Ekiti, the state capital.
Eyewitnesses said that the assailants numbering about three stormed the area on a motorcycle and opened fire on the victim and escaped from the scene with undisclosed amount of money.
A source said: “The people came on Okada and shot at him from close range killing him on the spot. He was a popular PoS agent in this area, because he always had cash.
“They even took all his money and phones away because he is just settling down for the day’s operations as a PoS agent, you know they deal mostly with cash.
“The government must be alive to its responsibilities now because these killings are troubling now that it is happening in the state capital on broad daylight. We have had killings in this Ado-Ekiti in the last few weeks”, the source added.
