The incident, however, sparked a protest on Tuesday by the angry youths of Oke-Onigbin who blocked the road leading to the local government secretariat.
Many road users and travellers avoided the route for fear of being attacked by the protesting youths.
When contacted, the spokesman of the Kwara State Police Command, Ajayi Okasanmi, said normalcy had been restored in the area.
He said an investigation had begun into the killing and assured the people of the local government of adequate protection.
