New details have come to light regarding the circumstances which led to the attempted assassination of “Young Shall Grow” boss, Chief Vincent Obianodo.

The transport mogul was attacked last month in his car on his way home to FESTAC in an incident that left 3 people dead. Chief Obianodo barely escaped with his life as he suffered a gun shot wound to his shoulder.

According to reports, further investigations have revealed that one of the attackers that was gunned down was a popular auto dealer at Amuwo Odofin area of Lagos State and is reputed to be seen frequently in police circles in the area.

An anonymous source also said  that the motive for trying to assassinate Chief Obianodo may not be far from recent clash between a popular night club owner in the area and the Police in FESTAC.

The transport magnate was reportedly said to have intervened on behalf of the young club owner making it impossible for him to be intimidated or run out of his business. This, the source continued, may not have gone well with some people, hence the attempt on his life.

Close associates of the wounded Chief reportedly said that he was flown out of the country last Monday in an air ambulance to the USA.
