Reports reaching us show that a popular Yoruba broadcaster, Soji Omotayo, had a close shave with death some days ago when a top socialite and car dealer, Kunle Kushimo Agarawu, allegedly pounced on him with a machete, inflicting injuries on the broadcast journalist.

It was said that Agarawu accused his friend, Soji Omotayo, of having an illicit affair with his (Agarawu) wife.

The suspect was further said to have lured his victim to his house at Ota, Ogun State on Sunday morning and then unleashed terror on him until men of the Nigeria Police came to his rescue and rushed him to the hospital for treatment.

On Friday, September 4, 2015, a presenter on Faaji 106.5 FM, Otunba Yemi Odunodu, narrated the incident on his programme, Mimi Aye (The Vicissitudes of Life), which holds on Fridays from 10pm to 12am.

According to him, Agarawu had called Soji mobile number on Saturday, August 22, 2015, but could not reach him. The broadcaster’s Personal Assistant, who reportedly answered the call, had told the suspect that her boss was having a nap.

But after Soji reportedly woke up, he called his friend, who then informed him of a business deal. It was said that Soji agreed to see Agarawu the next day, which was on a Sunday, before heading for church.

On the Sunday morning, Soji reportedly headed straight to his friend’s house with his PA and on getting there, he entered his house, but the suspect reportedly locked the two of them inside.

While still trying to figure out what could be amiss, the suspect reported brought out a cutlass and attempted to strike his victim, but Soji reportedly blocked it with his hand and there was no cut at all.

This, we learnt, surprised Agarawu, who then reportedly told Soji ‘so you have antidote for machete attack?’

This time, the suspect aimed for his victim’s head, hoping to get a cut from there to neutralise the antidote. He eventually struck gold and then inflicted several injuries on his victims, leaving him in pool of his own blood on the floor.

The presenter disclosed that as at the time of airing his programme, the whereabouts of Agarawu is unknown, but Soji is responding to treatment at the hospital.
