Irate youths have blocked the Oke Omiru end of the Osogbo-Ilesa Expressway as they protest against the alleged harassment of residents by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The youths stormed the area in the early hours of Tuesday, 9th February and expressed their displeasure over the operations of the anti-graft agency.
IDOMA VOICE gathered that the protesters also prevented vehicular movement on the road with bonfires.
