Amed robbers, on Wednesday, killed a trader during a raid on a phone market, known as Computer village, in Abeokuta, capital of Ogun State.
The robbers reportedly invaded the market at 6:10 p.m., shooting sporadically to scare traders and customers away before stealing wares.
The police said Dayo Bankole, a trader in the market, was shot dead by the robbers during the operation.
However, some witnesses said the gunmen were members of a cult group chasing a member of a rival group.
But the police spokesperson in the state, Abimbola Oyeyemi, said it was a robbery incident.
