 In these challenging times, lawlessness and criminality continue to linger as those in charge pretend not to be aware. On Thursday 9th November 2023 at about 9.30 am in the morning at 3, Kehinde Aderibigbe Street, Olorunsogo, Molete, Ibadan, Oyo state, a lawyer with phone number-08053721344- alongside four thugs made an abortive attempt to serve a harmless citizen a letter in the midst of intimidation and threats from the thugs.
