Unidentified gunmen, Thursday shot dead a popular photographer in Sapele, Delta State right in his wife’s store located at Otomewo Road by Oboscah Lane.

The deceased who was simply identified as Mr. Sunny White was brutally gunned down by the armed hoodlums while relaxing with his kids as his wife attended to customers.

The killers of the photographer were said to have driven in an unmarked ash colour Toyota Corolla car.

A source lamented that the family members of the ace photographer were still desperately trying to unravel the reason White was brutally shot dead in the presence of his wife and children.

The source eulogized White as a very respectable young man who minded his business and kept to himself, noting sadly that he did not deserve to die in such a violent manner.

He added: “With this latest killing, security operatives need to sit up in the area so as to stop the continuous assassination of young men.”

Determined efforts to reach the Delta State Police spokesman Mr. Bright Edafe, a deputy superintendent of police proved abortive as his mobile phone was serially engaged.
