A statement issued by the corps’ spokesperson, Yusuf Idowu, on Monday said the attack on the Amotekun Awo Command in Egbedore Local Government Area of Osun State occurred last weekend.

He disclosed that the attack was on the heels of the invitation of the Amotekun by the Oniwoye of Iwoye over an attempt to bury someone illegally on the community’s ancestral land.

“But on getting to the site, the four personnel deployed to investigate the matter, discovered that the burial has been concluded. Shockingly, a notorious and long-wanted thug, Ismaila Aluko, emerged from hiding with a gang of armed collaborators and launched a brutal attack on the operatives, injuring them in the process,” he said.

According to him, the personnel tactically withdrew to the command head office in Awo to avoid confrontation.

Idowu further revealed that rather than allowing the personnel to remain at the work station peacefully, the gang regrouped and launched an attack at the command.

His words, “In a shocking turn of events, the hoodlums regrouped and staged a second attack on the Amotekun office in Awo.

“This brazen assault took place in the presence of law enforcement agents, including officers of the Nigeria Police Force, deployed to investigate the matter and an officer of Department of State Services (DSS), who was around to intercede in the matter, as well as family members of the assailants.

“During the attack, the marauders tried to disarm Amotekun personnel and inflicted serious injuries on the operatives, who were immediately taken to a medical facility for emergency treatment. One personnel was seriously injured while four others sustained minor injuries.

“This violent act represents a direct threat to the security and peace of our communities and will not be tolerated. The Osun Amotekun Corps is currently working with relevant security agencies to ensure the swift arrest and prosecution of all individuals involved in this heinous act.

 

“We reaffirm our unwavering commitment to the protection of lives, property, and community peace.”
