Residents Of Ogun Community Panic As Robbers Send Notice Of Attack.



Residents of Elerinko Estate in Ijoko-Ota in Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State live in fear  as suspected robbers threatened to attack them.

The robbers, who reportedly pasted the notice of their impending visit to the estate, advised the residents, in their interest to make cash available during their visit without which they threatened to descend heavily on them.

 The suspected robbers pasted the letters on buildings, electric poles and other strategic places in the estate last Saturday, before dawn.

A  resident who spoke under the condition of anonymity said:

“We woke up on Saturday to see the notice pasted all over the estate asking us to prepare for the robbers,” a resident said.

Another resident,  forwarded the message  to the Commissioner of Police in the state  and also to journalists.

According to him, “in the letter, the robbers said they will attack us. That we should make cash available in our homes. That we had enjoyed peace for too long, adding that no security can stop them. You can imagine the panic in the area with many planning to pack out. Please help us.”

In his reaction, the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Muyiwa Adejobi, confirmed that the command was aware of the threat by the robbers, saying the commissioner has ordered the area commander to do the needful.
