RISING hip hop act, Olaniyan Damilola, popular known as Damino Damoche, was shot dead on Thursday around 5.00 p.m at the Iba Gate of Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo, by people suspected to be cultists.
Nigerian Tribune gathered that Damoche was shot in the head twice, after he finished writing a test at the Faculty of Management Science of the institution.
The hip hop artiste, who broke to limelight mid-2011, was, until his death, a 400-level Banking and Finance student at LASU.
He was said to be working on his next album due for launch in April when the incident occurred.
Ngozi Braide, the image maker in charge of the Lagos State police command, cofirmed the killing.
She added that the police had deposited the corpse at the mortuary.
The Nigerian Tribune gathered that the hip hop act was on his way out of the campus , when some alleged cult guys accosted him and shot him at a close range.
The death created panic in the school, as students rushed to the scene to catch a glimpse.
A student of LASU, who simply identified himself as Ojo, informed the Nigerian  Tribune that “it is not unusual in LASU for someone to be killed before examinations. We know that they will surely kill since we are starting our exams next week.”
