Ubani Usman, a 30-year-old man, has been gored to death by a cow at the abattoir in Agege, Lagos State.
The incident reportedly happened on Wednesday, August 30.
According to reports, Ubani was standing close to the abattoir when the cow broke loose from the abattoir and attacked Ubani.
The cow rammed Ubani with its horns, inflicting serious injuries on his body. He was rushed to a nearby hospital where the doctors certified him dead.
The police who stormed the abattoir when alerted, were unable to arrest the fiery cow or its owner as the butchers failed to provide useful information.
The state police command is yet to confirm this incident.
