Rahmon was stabbed to death during the mayhem which occurred in Iwo Road area of Ibadan on Wednesday evening, June 16.
The Lead City University graduate was said to be preparing to travel to the United States of America to see his wife who recently delivered a set of twins.
Trouble started when Rahmon, whose mother owns Iwo Road Shopping Complex in the area wanted to park his vehicle in front of the complex but discovered that Park Managers had parked their vehicles at available spaces.
He was said to have asked the drivers to leave the entrance to allow customers and visitors to the complex to access the building. The drivers were said to have reported him to the park managers who were accused of swooping on the father of twins and started beating him.
His mother’s tenants and phone sellers were said to have rescued him from the hands of the drivers and park managers. Not satisfied, the assailants reportedly left to mobilise and invaded the complex with weapons. The hoodlums targeted Azeez and hurled stones, sticks and other sharp objects at him before he was stabbed in the chest.
Speaking to journalists at her residence on Friday, June 18, Alhaja Azeez revealed that the family has video evidence where some leaders of PMS in the state asked his members to attack traders at the shopping complex.
The grieving mother said all her children are devout Muslims contrary to claims in some quarters that late Ramon was a cultist.
"The transport union people had been using the frontage of the shopping complex for years. As a matter of fact, they used to defecate and smoke in my shopping complex when I first bought it. They used the place for transportation activities for not less than seven years," she narrated.
