BREAKING NEWS:Armed Robbers lay siege on Sango-Ota,Ogun State

Residents of Sango-Ota, Ogun State were early today woken from sleep with heavy sounds of gun-shots from armed robbers who laid siege on the industrial town as early as 4.30 am.
The robbers,according to sources had attempted to rob some banks in the Sango-Abeokuta Express way but were given hot chase by men of the mobile unit of the Nigeria Police recently posted to the town to curtail the activities of the underworld gang.
In the process, there were exchanges of gun fire from both sides and the robbers consequently fled in about three vehicles with which they planned to loot the banks and headed toward Oju-Oore axis of the Idi-Iroko Express way where they also attempted to forcefully gain entry into one of the banks(name witheld) located very close to the main road but unknown to them, they were being trailed by the same mobile policemen with whom they had earlier encountered in Sango,about 2 kilometers away.
Again, there were exchanges of gun shots between the police and the armed robbers who eventually fled abandoning one of the vehicles they came with.
The police are still combing the Sango-Ota environment for a possible link that could lead to the arrest of the suspected armed robbers.
