Gunmen have reportedly attacked a construction company in Owo, Ondo State.

Gunshots were said to have occurred at the site of Craneburg Construction Company, Owo on Wednesday evening.

In a tweet, the police confirmed that some people were injured during the attack.

“Tonight, there was a shooting incident at Craneburg Construction Company, Owo.

“Policemen are currently at the scene, victims have been taken to hospital and they are in stable condition.”

Gunmen had killed scores of church worshippers in Owo last month.

The armed men entered St Francis Catholic church in the town of Owo and fired at the congregation during a service to mark the holiday of Pentecost.

The Federal Government has blamed terrorist group Iswap for the Owo church attack, but Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has said such a conclusion is hasty.

“But whatever it is, we stand by the position that it’s a trilogy that is operating in our forests and causing havoc. We just have Fulani herdsmen right in front, followed by these bandits, and again ISWAP; so, the three of them work together and they work separately.

Ondo State has witnessed significant tension between farmers and herdsmen in recent years.
