According to our source, the son of the monarch Obadofin Gbami who narrowly escaped immediately after sighting the bandit was said to have tried  to make a phone call to the vigilante and security agencies, unfortunately  there was no network.


Meanwhile the information gathered from one of our reporter attached to the security agency revealed that one  Duro Bayeri(male) who is a guard to glo mask in the community was said to have intentionally shut down the network since 4pm of that very day of this ugly incident and as at the time of this report, the purpose for shutting down the glo network was yet to be revealed.
