A retired Chief Superintendent of Police, David Agholor has reportedly shot himself dead.
The incident happened at his residence on Sharaton Estate, Olaogun, in the Ijoko area of Ogun State.

“He started behaving unusually on Wednesday evening. When they asked him what was wrong with him, he said he was okay. When he woke up on Thursday, he went to his wife’s bedroom to greet her.
