Kwara State Police Command dismisses reports of a bandit invasion and says a reported attack that sparked panic is not true. According to the police, rumours that armed bandits entered Oke-Oyi are based on false information. The alarm reportedly began on Thursday morning around Government Girls Secondary School in Oke-Oyi, with claims spreading that bandits had invaded the area, particularly in Ilorin East/Moro Local Government Area, prompting fear among residents. The police urge the public to avoid circulating unverified reports and to rely on official information. In addition, the command says it will prosecute people it identifies as responsible for spreading the false alarm, warning against actions that could lead to public disorder. Both reports describe the same incident and outcome: the police do not confirm any bandit invasion and instead characterize the event as a rumour-driven scare. The police position remains that there is no evidence supporting the invasion claims and that the matter will be handled through enforcement against misinformation.
