Clarifying what it described as misleading information, it was stated, “The Oyo State Police Command wishes to clarify the misinformation circulating on social media regarding the resurgence of a decade-old footage displaying gory details of human remains discovered at an abandoned warehouse within the Soka Area under Ibadan North East Local Government.

“The treated footage, which captured a series of unfortunate incidents at the time, led to escalated investigations, resulting in a deliberate upgrade of the state’s security architecture.

“Following this, the Oyo State Police Command, in conjunction with its sister services and neighboring commands, has adopted impregnable security measures to prevent a recurrence of the dark past.

“The Oyo State Police Command passionately appeals to members of the public to refrain from spreading unverified and incorrect information capable of creating panic and disrupting public order in the State, as there will be strict sanctions for defaulters, regardless of association or affiliation’
