When jounalists visited both communities, the police from G Division, Oloje, were still raiding the areas and arresting suspects.

Youths fighting over a girl have destroyed at least 25 cars on Saturday.

DailyTrust reported that the youths came from two communities in Ilorin, Kwara State.

The report gathered that a disagreement started after the two youth group leaders from Itamerin and Ode Popo communities lay claim to be the boyfriend of one Aisha, a JSS 2 student.

A community leader in Ode Popo, Alhaji AbdulRazaq, told our correspondent that, “They started the incident around 1:30am on Saturday because of a girl, Aisha, a JSS 2 student of about 18 years.

“They started mobilising themselves for the clash on Friday and left over 25 vehicles destroyed in the process on Saturday,” adding that, “We called on the police to wade in before the issue got out of hand.”

He further said about 30 suspects, mostly teenagers, had been arrested.

Another resident, Omotayo, said the police arrested the girl, Aisha, on Sunday morning, adding that the leaders of the two groups, one Ismail and his rival, fled the communities after the incident.
