The Ogun State Police Command wishes to clarify that the security incident recorded at a private dredging site in Magbon Etido, Mowe, was an isolated criminal attack and not a bandit operation as being speculated in some quarters.
Regrettably, a soldier on security duty lost his life during the incident, while another sustained injuries and is currently receiving treatment. Following the report, Police operatives, in collaboration with the Military, swiftly mobilized to the area and commenced coordinated operations to apprehend those responsible.
Preliminary findings do not indicate any connection between the incident and banditry activities in Ogun State. Investigations and tactical operations remain ongoing.
The Command assures residents that the situation is under control, security presence has been reinforced, and there is no cause for alarm.
Spokesman for the Command DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi confirmed the story.
