When Tribune Online passed through Owode, heaps of burn fire were seen on the roads leading from Owode to Olorunda, with angry youths stopping every vehicle in a stop-and-search commando style, looking for Customs officers to attack. We have mobilised today to teach them a lesson,” the angry youths told Tribune Online exclusively. When contacted, the Spokesman of the Ogun Command of the NCS, Abdullahi Aliyu Maiwada explained that Customs officers shot in self-defence after being attacked by the youths mobilised by the smugglers. The smugglers mobilised the youths of the town and they attacked our men with dangerous weapons. “However, today (Tuesday), the youths again mobilised themselves and started doing stop and search, looking for Customs officers to maim, because they were all armed with dangerous weapons.
