Gunmen suspected to be bandits, on Monday, attacked Oyate community in Oro-Ago Divisional area of Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara state.
According to DAILY POST, the attack was the second abortive attack in two weeks.
The armed bandits reportedly attacked the same community and disrupted Muslimsâ last Friday prayer but were resisted by the local security personnel in the area.

Security sources disclosed that the armed bandits crossed over from neighbouring Kogi State which shares common boundaries with Kwara to carry out their attacks on towns and villages in the state.
