VOICE AIR MEDIA News Update

OSUN: On Wednesday, the operatives of Western Nigeria Security Network(WNSN) codenamed Amotekun engaged in a fight with men of the Nigerian Immigration Service, in Osogbo, the state capital.

The clash, which witnessed sporadic shooting, started with an operative of Amotekun and NIS having a confrontation around 10:45am in front of the Osun Government House Annex, Oke-Fia, Osogbo.

The operatives shot into the air to scare themselves, making residents scamper to safety as business owners around that area closed their shops.

Patrol vans of operatives of NIS and Amotekun were sighted inside the premises of Government House annex.

It was further gathered the leadership of the two agencies were holding a meeting to resolve the issue.

The cause of the clash was still not known as at press time. Efforts to speak with the representatives of the agencies proved abortive.
