Armed Raiders Storm Immigration Office in Ogbomoso, Escape with Officers’ Guns

Suspected gunmen attacked the Nigeria Immigration Service office in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, at about 10:00 p.m. They overpowered officers on duty along the Ogbomoso–Ilorin motorway, near the NNPC station, and made off with several firearms before fleeing into the night. The Oyo State Police Public Relations Officer says he has not yet received a full briefing on the incident. Investigations are under way to confirm the number of weapons taken and to track down the perpetrators. I’ve come to believe that once insecurity takes root in a town, it’s almost impossible to uproot. If the president can’t protect his own siblings, how can he safeguard other Nigerians? With elections just months away, we must learn from 2023’s mistakes. I cry whenever I see lives cut short and no one seems to care. We must vote wisely this time.
