A leader of the Park Management System (PMS) in Igboora, in Ibarapa Central Local Government Area of Oyo State, Jamiu Sego, has been reportedly killed and his corpse set ablaze by angry youths, for allegedly destroying political billboards belonging to opposition in the state.
Sego allegedly joined the chairman, PMS disciplinary committee in the state, Mukaila Lamidi, popularly known as Auxiliary, in destroying political party billboards belonging to opposition in the town last week.
The deceased was alleged to have also destroyed billboards in Ibarapa area of the state on Saturday before he was killed in Igboora.
It was gathered that the body of late Sego, who was the head of Okada riders in the area, was burnt to ashes after he was killed by the angry youths.
Recall that Auxiliary and his boys last week led hundreds of PMS boys to destroy billboards of opposition parties, including the Presidential candidate of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
The hoodlums also destroyed billboards of senatorial and House of Representative candidates of APC and other political parties.
Following the destruction, the state police command arrested Auxiliary and arraigned him at the Magistrate Court sitting in Ibadan North East Local Government area of the state.
Auxiliary was, however, granted bail and the cace adjourned.
Efforts to get the reaction or confirmation from the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Adewale Osifeso, were not successful as his mobile phone number was not reachable.
