Oyo APC Condemns Abduction Of Adelabu's Sister's Twin, Demands Urgent Rescue
The Oyo State chapter of the APC has condemned the abduction of the sister and twin sons of a former minister, calling for their immediate rescue and stronger security measures to curb rising kidnapping incidents in the state.
The Oyo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has condemned the abduction of Mrs. Busayo Adegoke John-Paul, sister of former Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, alongside her twin sons in Ibadan.
The victims were reportedly kidnapped by armed men at the Challenge area of Ibadan South-West Local Government Area on Wednesday morning, in an incident that has further raised concerns over worsening insecurity in the state.
In a statement issued by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Olawale Sadare, the APC described the attack as “disturbing and unacceptable,” calling on security agencies to intensify efforts to secure the immediate release of the victims.
The party also urged Governor Seyi Makinde to strengthen the state’s security architecture and work closely with federal agencies to address the rising cases of abductions across Oyo State.
The abduction adds to a series of similar incidents in recent months, heightening public anxiety over safety, particularly in urban areas previously considered relatively secure.
Security agencies are yet to issue an official update on rescue efforts at the time of filing this report.
