Yoruba Nation protesters regrouped under November 27 Bridge along Osogbo/Gbongan Road, Osogbo after police operatives sealed off the venue of their rally.

 

Men of the Nigeria Police Force and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps have sealed off the Nelson Mandela Freedom Park in Osogbo to stop Yoruba Nation agitators from holding a rally at the venue.

 

 

Amotekun operatives in the state were also reportedly positioned at a strategic spot to prevent participants from accessing the venue.

Due to the heavy presence of security operatives at the venue, participants later regrouped under November 27 Bridge along Osogbo/Gbongan Road, Osogbo.

 

It would be recalled that in April, police operatives took over Mapo Hall in Ibadan ahead of the Yoruba self-determination rally organised by the Prof Banji Akintoye-led Ilana Odua to sensitise people.
