The community of Iworo in Ifelodun Local Government Area has reportedly been deserted by residents, who are fleeing due to escalating insecurity in the area.
Eyewitness accounts indicate that attacks by unknown assailants, kidnappings, and increasing criminal activity have made daily life unsafe for locals, forcing many to leave their homes in search of safety. Local sources describe empty streets, abandoned homes, and a growing sense of fear among those who remain.
Security agencies have yet to release an official statement on the situation, but community leaders are calling for urgent intervention from state and federal authorities to restore peace and protect residents.
Analysts warn that the displacement in Iworo reflects a broader security challenge affecting rural communities across the region, highlighting the urgent need for proactive measures to curb banditry and communal violence.
The fleeing of residents has sparked concern among humanitarian groups, who stress the importance of providing emergency assistance, shelter, and support for those displaced by the insecurity.
