How gunmen strike Oluwalogbon Community in Ogun
A group of armed gang had again invaded the home of Mr. Lanre Agbeniyi of Oluwalogbon community in Ogun State. The attack took place at about 11:pm of February 4, 2020.
According to one of the residents in the community, the armed men operated unchallenged in Mr. Lanre’s house for about 10 minutes before driving off.
Our reporter further gathered from one of the residents in the community who refused to reveal his identity for security reasons said that ‘the actions of the armed men don’t look like an armed robbery thing.
They did not molest any other home in this neighbourhood except that of Lanre and this is the second time this is happening within a space of three months’.
Another resident who identified himself as Ayo said, ‘they seemed to have a target. They went straight to that house and released three gun shots before departing without harassing any other member of the community’.
However, one Mrs. Akintola who claimed to be a friend of Mrs. Agbeniyi told our reporter that ‘my friend told me that they have relocated to Ibadan, although she came on the eve of Christmas, and she said the people that broke into their house took away some of her husband’s documents and one photo album’.

She went further to inform our reporter that the presence of government security agents are hardly felt in their neighbourhood, and that a local security group called vigilante keep watch over the community between midnight and 6:am on a daily basis, as matters concerning insecurity has become a national issue.
Meanwhile, all efforts aimed at reaching the Agbeniyi’s family through the phone contacts our reporter got from one of the residents for their comments and reactions on the incidents were not successful.
