The circulation of video capturing movement of heavy military equipment in Ibadan has sparked outrage from members of the public who faulted the recording and posting of the video on social media.
In what was considered a latest move by the federal government in securing the rescue of the abducted Oyo schoolchildren and their teachers, the military had deployed fleet of heavy-duty trucks to the state.
The video of the military vehicles recorded by one of the residents showed how they were transported into Ibadan, the Oyo capital city.
This had however been heavily condemned by some netizens who considered the recording and posting of the video as the exposure of a sensitive information which may be leaked to the suspected terrorists responsible for the May 15 attacks and kidnap of the students and their teachers.
