The incident occurred at a meeting at the monarch’s palace.
The minister said that the youths demanding an end to SARS brutalities were peaceful, but regretted that the protest was hijacked.
“Hoodlums, thugs & miscreants disrupted stakeholders meeting in Soun’s palace now-invading, stoning and breaking doors, glasses.
“Soun, myself and council chiefs were scurried into safety by the police and DSS. Ogbomoso youth are law-abiding. But hoodlums have taken over,” he tweeted.
