Again, another Monarch abducted in Kwara state by suspected bandits
By: Bodunrin Kayode
Again, bandits have abducted a monarch and two others in an early Saturday morning dare devil raid on the Palace of the Oba in Olayinka community.
Disclosing the sad incident, in a release, the Coordinator of the Joint Security Watch Kwara South, Elder Olaitan Zubair condemned in strong terms the latest kidnapping incident which took place at Olayinka in Agunjin District of Ifelodun council area of Kwara State.
This latest abduction where the monarch of the community, Alhaji Saliman Aweda, and two other restaurants were abducted in the early morning raid that occurred at about 1:00 a.m. today, brings to the fore the helpless nature of the security architecture in the state and the inability of the federal agencies to handle things effectively.
Elder Zubair described the incident as disturbing and unacceptable, noting that the recurrence of such attacks including the recent attacks at Idofin Odo Ase where several people were kidnapped and schools were forced to shut down for four months has heightened fear and insecurity across Kwara South.
Zubair stated that this latest case strengthens the earlier appeal made to the Brigade Commander, 22 Armoured Brigade, for full-scale military operations in the area to complement the recent gallant efforts of captain Abiola and his team, whose operations in Oke-Oyan, Owa-Kajola, Owa-Onire and surrounding communities, and rescue of Idera victims, have shown commitment to tackling the menace, despite limited resources.
“We cannot continue to watch our traditional rulers and innocent citizens fall prey to kidnappers. The time for decisive, coordinated action by all security agencies is now,” Elder Zubair declared.
He urged the Nigerian Army, the Nigeria Police Force, and other security agencies to treat the security of Ifelodun and the entire Kwara South axis as a matter of urgent priority before the situation deteriorates further.
