Pandemonium broke out yesterday at Obada-oko community in Ewekoro local government area of Ogun state  when suspected land speculators and youths engaged in a bloody clash leading over land disputes in  the area. One person was  reportedly killed while several persons  sustained  injuries. A lawmaker representing Ewkoro state constituency in the State House of Assembly, Israel Jolaoso narrowly escaped death in the hands of the rampaging  land speculators. The development  paralyzed commercial activities as the ever-busy old  Abeokuta-Lagos road was blocked  for several  hours for those coming into Abeokuta and those leaving the town . Also, the third term unified examinations in the state public schools were  immediately cancelled.
