Angry Youths in Ibadan took over Oyo State Government Secretariat, Agodi, Ibadan during a non peaceful protest in Ibadan, the capital city of Oyo state.
The angry mob today raged to the Oyo state Secretariat while forcing their way into the premises as security personnel attached to the Premises appeared to be caught unaware at the entrance scampered for safety.
As a result of the Protest, one police officer who was attached to the Oyo state Governor’s Office by the name, Inspector Dynasty Layemo was injured by the mob who attempted to gain access into the Governor’s Office.
The police officer has since been taken to an undisclosed hospital for immediate medical attention.
Some of the angry youths were heard shouting out of frustration in Yoruba language, “lori owo wa” which translates despite being our money.
The shocking incident left many civil servants inside the government Secretariat in panic mood as many were seen hanging around different spots in case of unforseen eventuality.
There were burning of Tyres in front of the state Secretariat by the angry mob to register their anger.
The Executive Assistant on security to Governor Seyi Makinde, CP Sunday Odukoya (rtd), who spoke to journalists condemned the act saying the situation in the country affects everybody equally and should not be reason why anybody should hide under such to destroy or vandalize Government properties.
However, security personnel comprising Operation Burst, NSCDC, and Amotekun have arrested the situation as the mob were dispersed and normalcy restored within the state Secretariat.
