Tiktoker, Salo recalls being shot 3 times in Lekki by hired killers, escapes headshot as they run out of bullets
Popular TikToker, Salo has recounted how he was shot three times by an unidentified assailant in Lekki, who initially aimed to shoot him in the head but ran out of bullets.
In a new statement, the Tiktoker described how the incident unfolded, revealing that he didn’t realize the situation was escalating when the attacker first fired a shot into the air.
It was only when the gunman pointed the weapon at him and shot again that he understood the gravity of the threat.
Salo explained that after being shot the first time, he thought it was a prank, as he was still able to talk and groan in pain.
However, the situation quickly worsened when he was shot two more times in the stomach, leaving him unable to breathe.
He added that the gunman attempted to shoot him in the head but ran out of bullets before he could deliver the fatal shot.
In his statement, Salo clarified that the attackers were not armed robbers but “hired killers,” hired specifically to take his life.
He expressed confusion, asking why he was targeted, especially since he is the one supporting his family and considered the “light.”
He also noted that other public figures, including singer Portable and fellow TikToker DJ Chicken, were not targeted by the killers, further questioning the motives behind the attack.
This incident follows an earlier attack in which Salo was shot and had his jewelry stolen in Lekki.
The attack occurred on Thursday, October 10, 2024, around the Lekki axis in Lagos State, and he was subsequently rushed to Perez Medcare Hospital, Lekki Phase 2.
