It was an unpleasant experience for residents of Oke-Iba area, Ikirun in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Osun State as one Azeez Adeleke was allegedly beaten to death by suspected sons of a popular Islamic cleric in the town.

Azeez, 25, who was a mechanic was said to have attended a birthday party  of one of his colleagues, Adebayo Wasiu’s son held at the Igbole area of the town.

According to a close family source,  who simply identified  himself as Hakeem said Azeez attended the birthday party organized by Wasiu for his child on Sunday.  He had a work at hand earlier which made him to attend the event  late.  He got there around 5pm and left 7pm.

“He was leaving when he met these 4 brothers on his bike. He politely  told them to get off his bike. He was afterwards beaten by the guys and his clothes were tore to shred.

“He struggled to get on the bike and got down at a filling station along Ekoende, strangely  asking people around the area  to give him water.

” There was apprehension among the people that he had been hit by a powerful charm,  as he gave up the ghost minutes later.
