The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC, Osun Command successfully prevented a robbery attack on the Iwo-Ibadan road and retrieved a stolen vehicle from robbers in the Onibu-Eja community.
In a statement by the Assistant Superintendent of Corps, Public Relations Officer, Osun state Command, Kehinde Adeleke on Sunday, the NSCDC boss, Mr Michael Adaralewa, said at 3:25 a.m., a four-man gang of armed robbers invaded a house in the Onibu-Eja community, stealing the vehicle at gunpoint from a family.
Immediately after the gang fled, community members promptly alerted the NSCDC state command, whose officers on patrol swiftly responded and engaged the suspects in a gun duel. Overpowered by superior firepower, the suspects fled, abandoning the stolen vehicle.
