Hoodlums Attack Commissioner In Ondo, Disrupts Bursary Award Ceremony

The Commissioner of Ondo State Oil Development Area Development Commission (OSOPADEC), Kehinde Akinrotoye, popularly known as ‘Bonsue Aketi’ was brutally beaten on Wednesday, by suspected political thugs who invaded the premises of the bursary award ceremony.

The hoodlums also disrupted the bursary and scholarship award ceremony of the interventionist agency.

The incident caused pandemonium in the area as both staff and students, who came for the award ceremony, scampered for safety as a result of gunshots from the suspected hoodlums.

OSUN DEFENDER gathered that the hoodlums came in hired vehicles and started to shoot sporadically into the premises, thereby preventing the event from being held at the scheduled time.

The vehicle that brought the Commissioner to the event and another vehicle, were also badly damaged by the hoodlums

It took the intervention of men of the Ondo State Police Command to bring the situation under control.
