Bose Esho, an 18-year-old mother of two, is yet to come to terms with the sad reality. On this year’s Valentine’s Day, armed men suspected to be herders killed her 40-year-old husband, Sanya Esho.
A commercial motorcyclist and an indigene of Eggua in Yewa North Local Government Area of Ogun State, Mr Esho and another young man were waylaid and murdered on February 14 while riding on their motorcycles.
The other victim, identified simply as Olawale, hailed from Agbon village but ran a motorcycle spare parts shop in Eggua.
“We were preparing to formalise their relationship when the news of Olawale’s death broke,” Titus Elegbede, the septuagenarian chief of Ijabo, a suburb of Eggua, said. Mr Elegbede’s 19-year-old granddaughter, Taiye Falola, is pregnant for the late Mr Olawale.
