It was a harvest of tears on Thursday in Ipakodo, Ikorodu area of lagos state, after some gunmen invade a house and murdered a man and his two two sons.
The suspects, who killed the man identified as Celestine Nwokoye, and his sons, also shot his wife and his daughters who are bathing for their lives at the monument.
The wife and the injured daughters were said to have been rushed to the Ikorodu general hospital, where they are currently receiving treatment, according our source.
A resident of Ebute, who visited the scene, but did not want his print, said the attackers were suspected to assassins.
He said, "the man's house is located on Agbose street, off Oluodo junction. He worked at taxi park in murtala Muhammad international airport, Ikeja. The killers came on Thursday morning. They shot him and all the members of his family. He and two male children died on the spot, while they left his wife and the two daughters with bullet injuries.
"The attackers were not robbers., they went only to his apartment. I was that they did not take any property. That was why everyone suspects that the killers were sent. They shot all members of his family presumably, so that no one would be able to report to the police.
"But policemen from the Ipakodo division later came to our area to take photographs and remove the bodies. The policemen were all over our area.
A landlord, identified only as Abimbola, Told newsmen that the attackers could also be suspected rapist, known popularly in the area as badoo. Who had been terrorising and attacking residents.
"A week ago, a man and his child were attacked and stabbed to death in the Oke-Awori community in the Ibeshe area. Armed rapist, known as badoo, attacked the man and his child. They stabbed them to death. So i suspect the attackers of Nwokoye could be badoo. The police have a lot of work to do in our area". He added.
The command is working as assiduously to unravel the occurrence, we have some leads which we are working on,and we are breaking through."
The incident is coming barely four weeks after suspect cult members shot dead four person at 24 Road, in the Igbogbo,Ikorodu area of lagos
