It was the end of the road for a suspected robbery gang who have been terrorizing the Ikire axis of Osun State as they met their Waterloo.
Luck ran out on the suspected armed robbers after they were rounded up by the local vigilante who subsequently handed them over to the police.
The nabbed suspects, however, shocked observers as everyone one of them were dressed up as Fulani, but a check revealed that they instead were indigenes of Kogi and Indo states, with none being from the Fulani ethnic group.
