Just in:SARS office set on fire in osun state

The youth of Iwo town in Osun State, are currently on rampage, following the death of a student of the Osun State Polytechnic Iree, who was killed yesterday by a stray bullet recklessly fired by a SARS officer identified as Gbadamosi Lukman.

The angry youth have brought down the buildings inside the Iwo Area Police Command which houses the SARS office and have set it on fire. The attempt by the king, Oba Akanbi to calm them went the other way round.


The tragic incident happened during the annual Sallah Fest around Ajangbala. The deceased, Nafiu Babatunde Ayodele, left his base at Oluponna, to attend the event.

However, towards the end of the Festival, while waiting at the junction for a bike man to take him home, he was hit by a bullet. The SARS operatives were said to have stormed the event and started shooting sporadically, then later fled the scene.
