Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Three persons have been confirmed dead siring a gun battle between Amotekun Corps and some armed hoodlums in Akinlalu town, Ife North Local Government in Osun State.

Spokesman of Amotekun in the state, Yusuf Idowu, confirmed the incident, on Tuesday in a statement.

He said the clash ensued on Tuesday when Amotekun Corps dispatched four of its operatives on motorcycles to the town in response to distress calls from residents over violent activities of hoodlums who have terrorising the community.

The statement said things took a new turn when armed hoodlums ambushed the four personnel and seized two barrel guns from them.

According to him, a report of the incident was sent to the Amotekun command in Ile-Ife, leading to the deployment of more personnel with a view to resolving the issue.

Idowu said : “However, when the reinforcement was about to get to the community, it found a barricade and more hoodlums, suspected to be part of the gang terrorising the community and resisted dialogue.

“The hoodlums suddenly opened fire on the team, which resulted into crossfire for over 30 minutes, with the operatives at the end of which three of the hoodlums were killed.

“Also, three suspects were arrested while several others sustained injuries and fled the scene.

“Later, a team that entered the community for a search recovered the two guns seized from the operatives and recovered force uniforms used by the hoodlums for impersonation,” he said.

Meanwhile, Osun Amotekun Corps Commander, Isaac Omoyele, has condemned the attack in the strongest terms.

He restated the corps’ resolve to continue protecting lives, property, and the sovereignty of Osun communities.

“This cowardly ambush will not deter our operatives from carrying out their duties.

“The safety and security of our people remain our utmost priority.

“We will intensify our efforts to root out criminal elements threatening peace in our communities,” he said.
