Early Morning Robbery Hits Three Ibadan Communities
In a dawn raid on Tuesday, armed robbers struck three communities in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State. The criminals made off with cash, mobile phones, jewelry, and various valuables. These communities, Alaja, Seriki, and Ogogo, are situated along the new Ibadan/Oyo Expressway within the Akinyele Local Government Area. The incident occurred around 3 a.m., as reported by our correspondent who visited the affected areas.
One of the community leaders, Raji Kazeem, who confirmed the incident to our correspondent said, “Yes, it was true. The armed robbers came in the mid the night and robbed some houses. That’s why you saw landlords and landladies discussing in different groups.”
As of press time, all efforts to reach the state Police Public Relations Officer, Adewale Osifeso, were not successful as he did not pick up his calls nor respond to the messages sent to his mobile number.
