He said a farmer was among those who were shot dead by the robbers.
“They first went to Amotekun post and attacked them, before heading to the bank,” the witness told TheCable.
“A farmer who lived nearby had just returned from his farm and was riding towards his house when the robbers shot him, thinking he was coming to attack them.”
The witness said that as of today evening, the police have blocked off the banking areas because they think that part of the dynamites that the criminals dropped are still within the banks.
Social media users shared videos of the bandits shooting into the air as they fled.
When NEWS DIRECT called Sunday Abutu, the state’s police spokeswoman, to confirm the occurrence, no one picked up.
