A mob at Sango area of Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, on Wednesday night set ablaze two suspected armed robbers.

An eyewitness said the suspects who came on motorbike were set ablaze around 10: 20pm after they had attacked a resident of the area.

Daily Trust reports that in recent times, the Sango-Eleyele road is the hotspot of armed robbers in the state.

Our correspondent who visited the scene of the incident on Thursday observed that the remains of the suspects were still on the floor.

A resident who craved anonymity told Daily Trust that, “We suddenly heard a loud voice of a woman who happened to be the victim of the suspects. As you can see, their bodies are on the floor. There are many armed robbers on this axis.”
