How Robbers Shot Sun Editor, Steve Nwosu
LEADERSHIP learnt that Mr. Nwosu, who went to withdraw some money from a Zenith Bank Branch in Maza-maza, near FESTAC town, may have been trailed to the bank by the robbers. He was said to have made the withdrawal and was about leaving the banking hall when the robbers confronted him.
The robbers were said to have aimed and shot at his head but narrowly missed their target as the bullet was said to have brushed through the side of his head near his eyes. The robbers made away with the money he withdrew from the bank.
Nwosu was said to have been rushed to the hospital where he is responding to treatment.
When LEADERSHIP contacted the spokesperson of the Lagos State police command, Ngozi Braide, she confirmed the incident and said that the police were already investigating it.
Steve Nwosu, who was The Sun’s pioneer Saturday editor before he was appointed the daily editor, runs an incisive column, Frank Talk, where he deploys satire to mirror activities of government.
