@insideosogbo: Tension briefly gripped parts of Òṣogbo about two hours ago following reports of sporadic gunshots around the Old-Garage area of the Ọ̀ṣun State capital. The cause of the shooting remains unknown as of the time of this report, while residents and commuters were seen fleeing the area for safety. Security operatives have since intervened and moved into the area to restore calm and maintain law and order. No official statement has been released regarding the incident, and details surrounding the shooting are still sketchy. As investigations continue, residents are advised to remain calm, avoid spreading unverified information, and cooperate with security agencies. With the 2026 Ọ̀ṣun Governorship Election fast approaching, this incident serves as a reminder of the need for all stakeholders, political actors, and citizens to embrace peace, tolerance, and non-violence. The future of Ọ̀ṣun State is best secured through peaceful democratic engagement, not conflict. #insideosogbo
