On contacting the Federal Fire Service, Osun Command, the PRO, Adijat Basiri revealed that she got information.

"We declined going there due to security reasons. We requested for security back-up but couldn’t get one because Ikirun is a hot zone where we are usually attacked. This has occurred about twice in the past,” Bashiri told Daily Post
