There is palpable fear among residents of Imoru and Ijagba communities, both in Ose Local Government Area of Ondo State, as a result of an ongoing communal clash between the two contiguous communities.
Citizen Rapporteur learnt that the communal clash emanated from a boundary dispute among the two neighbouring communities.
Sources who confirmed the incident disclosed that the skirmish has stalled the ongoing West African School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) as question papers and answer booklets were set ablaze.
According to a source, there were sporadic shootings in the border communities yesterday night, thereby making the atmosphere tensed as many people were forced to stay indoors.
Meanwhile, neither the Ondo State Government nor the State Police Command has made any public statement regarding the situation, as of the time of filing this report.
