They later moved to the Oyo State Secretariat in Agodi, where they again blocked the road.
Some of the commuters plying the Total-Garden Secretariat Road, Government House Road and Parliament Road had to find alternative routes.
“Amotekun killed one boy that was going to buy food, because he is a printer and they spent the night at their shop,” a source said.
