A chieftaincy crisis also rocked Ikare Akoko, causing tension that forced the state government to impose a 24-hour curfew on the community.
The state government has disclosed that suspects involved in the violence would be charged to court anytime members of the Judicial Staff Union of Nigeria suspend their ongoing strike.
