Three killed as hoodlums' unrest enters third day in Ibadan
A wave of violence and unrest has gripped Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, Nigeria, with three people killed and several others injured in the past two days. The unrest, which began on Tuesday, has been attributed to clashes between rival gangs of hoodlums, who have been engaging in violent confrontations in various parts of the city.
According to reports, the violence started on Tuesday evening when a group of hoodlums attacked a rival gang in the Ojoo area of Ibadan, leading to a series of reprisal attacks and counter-attacks. The clashes have since spread to other parts of the city, including the Akure Road, Orita-Merin, and Agodi areas.
The Oyo State Police Command has deployed additional personnel to the affected areas to restore order and maintain law and order. The police have also arrested several suspects in connection with the violence and are investigating the incidents.
The Oyo State Government has condemned the violence and has called on the people of the state to remain calm and peaceful. The government has also appealed to the police to ensure that those responsible for the violence are brought to justice.
The situation in Ibadan is being closely monitored by the authorities, and efforts are being made to restore peace and normalcy to the city as soon as possible.
