” I also found Alomoge being held by some people. I asked him the reason for his action, and he said Ayomide had been having affairs with his wife, and he had warned him to desist, or else he would kill him” .
” I took him (Ayomide) to a nearby hospital and later to the University Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara State, where he later died” , the distraught man Ogunleye lamented.

In the court judgment on Thursday, 21st March 2024, Justice Jubril Aladejana gave his words saying, ” It would appear to me that rivalry between men over the affection of a woman should not be a ground to justify provocation, except the situation is such that it is sudden and leading to a heating of passion”.
“I consequently find the defendant guilty of the murder charge against him and therefore convicted as charged. Ayodeji Alomoge shall be hanged by his neck until he is dead”, the judge pronounced his final judgement.
