Pandemonium as northern youths storm Ondo with 35 dogs, dangerous weapons 

There was pandemonium on Friday in Okititpupa area of Ondo State as some youths from northern parts of the country stormed the communities with dogs, numbering about 35 and other dangerous weapons.

They were, however, nabbed by operatives of Western Security Network, also known as Amotekun.
Confirming their arrest, the Commander of Amotekun in the state, Akogun Adetunji Adeleye, said the suspects claimed someone invited them to the state whom they did not know.

His words, “They were people who claimed to have come from the northern part of the country with dogs, charms and cutlasses and the people of Okitipupa area who were not comfortable with them raised the alarm.

“But on interrogation, they claimed they were invited to Okutupupa by somebody and that they are actually working for the person. All attempts to reach the person they claimed to work for have not yielded any result till date.

“However, we want to warn residents to be vigilant when they see what I will call mysterious things. We have over 30 dogs among able bodied men who don’t even know where they are going. They claimed they were dropped in Okitipupa by a vehicle and that the vehicle had left.

“This calls for a very serious concern looking at the very serious security situation in the country.

“Investigation into who brought them and their real mission is still ongoing. They were attempting to enter the forest behind the military barracks in Okitipupa when they were arrested.”
