The Oyo State Police Command have arrested five of the Yoruba Nation agitators who reportedly hij@cked a government-owned radio station, Amuludun FM, in Ibadan and took control of transmission for about one hour on Sunday, May 28, 2023.
According to Sahara Reporters, a source said the individuals identified as Yoruba Nation agitators arrived at the station around 5 am, pretending that they wanted to make some enquiries.
“They gained access to the station by pretending that they wanted to make some enquiries. When they entered, they told the people there that they wanted to air their views but that was denied.
That was when they brought out charms and thr£at£ned the workers. Then they started making some announcements, saying in Yoruba that the people who sent them to take some actions should come out. They said after asking them to do those things, they abandoned them.
They were there for about one hour before the police came to disr¥pt their plan. Normalcy has returned to the area and some of them were arrested,” the source said.
However, the state police commissioner, Adebowale Williams, disclosed later on Sunday that the agitators forc#bly hij@cked the station to declare freedom of the Yoruba Nation from Nigeria.
Unfortunately for them, the police command swiftly restored calm and arrested the suspects.
Williams described the action of the agitators as criminal and an act of t£rr@rism. He said the people behind the group would be found and unveiled by the police.
