There was tension in parts of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on Wednesday morning as some aggrieved youths protested against the escape of Sunday Shodipe, a suspected serial killer in Akinyele Local Government Area of the state.
The placard bearing youths matched to the Police Headquarters at Eleyele area of the city.
While addressing the angry youth, the Commissioner of Police, Oyo State Police Command, Nwachukwu Enwonwu, assured them of his readiness to track down the suspect and bring him to justice.
However, it was learnt that the protesters went wild and attacked security personnel at the command with stones and other dangerous objects.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Olugbenga Fadeyi, said some students protested at the command’s headquarters.
Fadeyi said, “The CP and other senior police officers attended to them and answered all their questions.
“You know students now, some of them got out of control but we were able to handle the situation professionally. They have since gone back.”
