The atmosphere became tense in the 65 minutes as the center referee, Ayo Amos, issued Amotekun defender Akinloye Ismail Babatunde, Force No: AMT/AN/21418, a red card for violent conduct on the police defender, Odukoya Olanrewaju.

Drama in Ogun State as Amotekun Corps assulted police officers with charms and knives during the Value Jet/SWAN Security Cup.

In the 52nd minute of the quarterfinal game, when the police officers scored their second goal, the rowdy Amotekun policemen who were taking part in the ongoing football competition hosted by the Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Ogun State chapter, lost control.

The atmosphere became tense in the 65 minutes as the center referee, Ayo Amos, issued Amotekun defender Akinloye Ismail Babatunde, Force No: AMT/AN/21418, a red card for violent conduct on the police defender, Odukoya Olanrewaju.

Odukoya Olanrewaju, a police defender, was also dismissed by the referee for retaliation.

Akinloye, the Amotekun defender who had been sent off, came to the field right away and struck Constable Adesina James, a police officer who was playing on the field.


The ugly development led to invasion of the pitch by spectators at the stand who came in to rescue the police officer from the mob attack by the Amotekun.

Surprisingly, one of the Amotekun defenders, Tejuoso Segun with force no: AMT/AS/21201 rushed out of the pitch and returned with a charm and broken bottle to attack Inspector Ogunremi Oluwafemi inflicting him with a deep cut injury on his lower jaw.

The injured inspector Ogunremi was unconscious for some minutes before he was revived and rushed to hospital for treatment.

The match ended abruptly in the 67th minute.

In the 2021 edition of the SWAN/Security Cup, Amotekun Operatives chased referees and spectators on the pitch with charms.

Addressing journalists in Abeokuta, the chairman of the organizing committee, Hakeem Akintunde, expressed disappointment in the conduct of the supposed security operatives.

Akintunde said the conduct of the officers negates the rules of the competition.
