BREAKING NEWS : Ajimobi Shuts down Agodi Zoo As Lion Kills Attendant

The Oyo State Government has announced the immediate closure of Agodi Zoological garden in Ibadan

The government decision was based on the report it received from the company managing the Zoo, AM & C, that one of the lions at the Zoo had accidentally attacked one of the attendants,

Hamzat Oyekunle, popularly known as Baba Olorunwa, who later died from injuries sustained from the incident.

Meanwhile, the lions have been evacuated pending further investigations.
The government’s decision was contained in a statement at the weekend by the Executive Secretary, Bureau of Investment Promotion, Yinka Fatoki, who expressed shock at the unfortunate incident.

Fatoki said the incident is particularly surprising and sad as Oyekunle had fed the lion for over five years and was known to have had a very good relationship with all the animals in the zoo.
Meanwhile, government representatives have visited the family to commiserate with them over the demise of Oyekunle.
