Militants attack Ogun state deputy Governor
Suspected militants on Monday assaulted
the security group of the Ogun state deputy governor Mrs Yetunde Onanuga at
Ibafo.
The activists connected with Onaguga's security group
in firearm fight when she set out on an
assessment visit to some marginal groups
amongst Ogun and Lagos states sacked by
aggressors.
The News Office of Nigeria (NAN) reports that
the suspected aggressors had last Friday assaulted
the groups slaughtering scores of inhabitants.
Onanuga, who went to Imushin, Elepete and Igbo-
Olomu people group, consoled the inhabitants of
the dedication of the powers to secure
their lives and property.
The suspected aggressors be that as it may, started
shooting at the security agents who
went with the agent representative at Akoka
Ebute range of Ibafo, in Obafemi-Owode Neighborhood
Government Range.
Notwithstanding, the firearm fight which went on for about
20 minutes, did not record a setback.
Customary rulers from the influenced groups
had before held a meeting with the Secretary to
the Legislature of Ogun State (SSG), Taiwo
Adeoluwa, in Abeokuta.
NAN reports that the result of the meeting
prodded the legislature to send a designation,
driven by the representative senator to visit the influenced
groups.
As the development security group drove by the administration
boss was drawing closer Ibafo Streams, where the
suspected activists were accepted to stow away,
a torrent of gunfire followed, compelling the law
authorization specialists to take spread.
NAN assembled that the security agents,
including warriors and policemen, reacted
quickly and repulsed the suspected
activists, who later withdrew further into the
rivers and got away.
The designation later made a temporary route from the
harried zone after the appointee representative had
guaranteed the inhabitants of responsibility to their
wellbeing.
Responding to the weapon fight, the SSG communicated
worry over the disintegrating security circumstance
in the influenced groups and called for
dire Government's help.
``It is a thing of disappointment that things have gone so
terrible in our nation; at this level, the groups drove
by the appointee legislative leader of the state were definitely not
ready to have entry to a piece of our state.
``It implies that without mincing words, the
Central Government needs to get required in
this.
``This is something that is past the limit
of the police. We require military team like
the one we have in Niger Delta; it's vital
what's more, attractive.
``As we can see in Elepete, Igbo-Olomu and
Imagbon, nothing can be contrasted and the
brutality here in Ibafo," Adeoluwa said.
He said the trading of gunfire between the
security agents and the criminal"in wide
light" was unfortunate.
