Suspected bandits on Tuesday night attacked the old National Park Service (NPS) office in Oloka, Orire Local Government Area of Oyo State, killing an as-yet-undetermined number of staff.

The Conservator of the Park, Tesleem Kareem, confirmed the incident in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Ibadan.

Mr Kareem said the exact number of service personnel killed was still unclear.

“Yes, it is true. We are in the process of evacuating the victims,” he said.

NAN gathered that the attack occurred at about 9:00 p.m. on Tuesday, and at least five NPS personnel were reportedly killed during the assault.

Sources said the bodies of the victims are yet to be recovered, as they are believed to be located within the surrounding forest area.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Ayanlade Olayinka, also confirmed the incident.

Mr Olayinka said the Commissioner of Police, Oyo State Command, alongside other security chiefs, was on the way to the location.

He added that the Commissioner of Police had deployed tactical teams, including personnel of the Mobile Police Force, to the affected area to prevent further breakdown of law and order.
