At about 2pm, Olamide George was with friends under a tree, popularly known as Abe Igi when four gun men came over and murdered him.
George's father, Gbolahan George, said:
"I was told that the assassins were four and were in Keke Maruwa (tricycle). They parked at the entrance of the street; two got down and walked to where Olamide was sitting with his friends. The one with the gun did not know him, so the other person who accompanied him pointed at Olamide.
"Immediately Olamide was identified, he was shot in the head and the chest."
"I was called around 2:30pm and was told that my son's body was at the morgue in Lagos University Teaching Hospital. He was declared dead on arrival at the hospital. I reported the case at Area C Police Command."
"He is a DJ, and not a scammer. And he is very gentle and pleasant. He wanted to write JAMB and get into Lagos State University.
"Olamide was also about to wed his girlfriend, Yetunde Adeyeri, who is five months pregnant before his untimely death. And that was why I gave him N500, 000 to rent a one-room self-contained apartment at Apapa Road."
But reports claim some sources are suggesting a shady deal involving the deceased had gone wrong.
According to reports, two residents, who pleaded anonymity, said the deceased was an 'internet businessman'. One of them said the likely motivation for his assassination was a N2 million deal he just concluded.
