“We are trying to Give Ajegunle a good name and some stupid idiots are busy killing our youths in Ajegunle. I am begging the Nigerian authority to come to the aid of the people of Ajegunle now, before they will kill every growing youth in Ajegunle,” Showkey stated in the post with a graphic photo of a badly butchered person with a caption on it.

He lamented that people are just been killed in the community as if human life has no value.

“I am begging the Nigerian authorities once more time to come to the aids of our budding Ajegunle youths before things get out of hand and we (would be forced) to take laws into our hands. Please I am begging with tears in my eyes,” he stated.

The music star also revealed a photograph of a slain young man allegedly killed on Sunday July 9, 2017.

He however vowed that those ugly incidents would not stop him and many others from projecting the positive values of Ajegunle community to the entire world.
