Oguntulu was said to have joined friends to attend the function on Adeyemi Street in Oshodi, where he and other guests were attacked by the gunmen who also shot sporadically in the air to scare away residents within the community.
After the gunmen left the scene, residents and guests, who were unhurt, rushed Oguntulu and others that sustained gunshot wounds to a nearby hospital (name withheld).
But a few hours after, medical experts at the facility pronounced Oguntulu dead, after all efforts to resuscitate him proved abortive.
The Council Chairman, Kehinde Oloyede, who confirmed the attack and death of his aide on Sunday, disclosed that the incident occurred yesterday (Saturday).
Oloyede, who described his aide’s death as shocking, added that the remains of his former deputy chief of staff has been deposited at the mortuary.
