Hon Abiodun Babalola representing Ibadan North East constituency 1 has moved a motion at plenary on the urgent need to investigate violent gun clashes at Odo-Osun area of Ibadan on the 25th July, 2023 between two drug gangs.

According to Hon. Babalola while presenting the motion on the floor of the house, at least five persons were shot during the clash and one of them a 53-year old man, Mr Mudashiru Osungbemi sustained gunshot injury in the eye and this made him go totally blind.

He added that one of the leaders of the said gang nicknamed “Packaging” was the mastermind of an attack on the police team that arrested two notorious drug miscreants on January 21, 2021.

The Oyo State House of Assembly therefore called on the State Commissioner of Police to carry out detailed investigation into the violence clash between two rival drug gangs at Odo-Osun area of Ibadan North Local Government area on the 25th July, 2023 which left many innocent residents seriously injured.
The House in its resolve urged the Commissioner of Police through the Divisional Police Officer, Oremeji-Agugu, Ibadan to thoroughly investigate the matter, apprehend the masterminds of the attack and furnish the House with an update report within two weeks.

The House equally urged the police to increase Police presence and surveillance around Odo-Osun area to further such ugly incident in future.

This incident reportedly also led to the death of two other persons.

An appeal has also gone to the Oyo State Government to provide free medical treatment to the victims of the said violence.
