‘Two killed’ as hoodlums burn Ondo monarch’s palace

At least two people were feared killed, on Friday, when some hoodlums attacked Isinigbo community in Ondo state.

The community was said to have been attacked in the morning by the hoodlums who reportedly burnt the palace of the traditional ruler and destroyed several property.

The attack was said to be a reprisal over a communal clash with Ode, a neighbouring community in Akure north local government area.

On Tuesday, hoodlums attacked Ode and vandalised the palace of Sunday Boboye, the traditional ruler of the community.

The hoodlums, numbering about 20, were said to have invaded the palace about 12:30am, shooting indiscriminately and destroying property.

The attacks are said to be over a land dispute between Ode and its neighbouring Isinigbo community.
