A prominent Oodua Peoples Congress leader was abducted by bandits in Kwara State while attempting to deliver ransom for another captive’s release.
Here’s a grim twist: a community leader got snatched while trying to save someone else. Bayo Fabiyi and two companions were grabbed Monday in Irepodun while hauling N30 million, motorcycles, and rice to bandits, according to Daily post.
The security coordinator acknowledged the ambush, praising officers battling gangs near the Kwara-Kogi border but demanding better resources. Weirdly enough, an OPC spiritualist allegedly warned Fabiyi against going.
The police commissioner claims he’s in the dark about the whole thing—convenient timing for a top cop. The situation underscores how far banditry’s reach extends in Nigeria’s middle belt.
