Armed men suspected to be kidnappers have killed two commuters and kidnapped five others along the Ifon-Owo Highway in Ondo State.

Channels Television gathered that the driver of the commercial vehicle and a female passenger were shot dead at the scene of the incident on Friday evening.

Five other passengers, including a Corps member, were taken away by the gunmen. However, two of the victims managed to escape, with varying degrees of wounds.

One of the locals revealed that the fully loaded commercial vehicle was coming from Anambra State heading for Owo and Akure in Ondo State when the gunmen struck.

The Public Relations Officer of the Ondo State Police Command, SP Fumilayo Odunlami-Omisanyan confirmed the incident to our correspondent in a telephone chat.

She added that a team of policemen had been deployed to the area, and are currently combing the nearby forest to apprehend the kidnappers and rescue the victims.

My candid advice to South West leaders.. engage the OPC, Agbekoya and other Forest guards to comb all the forests in the South West and dislodge kidnappers operating in South West.. I honestly don't know whether they placed a curse of "docility" on Yoruba people.
These are Yorubas getting killed like chickens and many abducted never to be seen again by their family members.
The rate they are killing and abducting travellers along Ondo, Oyo axis is really terrible.. I know cases like that in the past week that have fallen into the hand of those daredevils operating freely in our forest and many more are still falling victims.

We just need to invest more in Amotekun coz it seems Ondo state Amotekun are short of staffs and resources like I heard few months ago.

Ondo is a border state and even this incident has to do with vehicle carrying people from Anambra passing through Ondo state. You will need lot more personnel for state like that coz of the traffic.

We don’t know the perpetrators but Fulani herdsmen don’t have that cover again so they can be dealt with easily if they are the perpetrators. I thought we combed all those forest but it seems they always lay low, then when the noise is down, they strike and run away again and wait till it lay low.

Let Governmemt sanction private security outfits to join the fight against kidnapping.. there are private Military contractors who can get the job done with state-of-the-art technologies including drones.. it's not everything they must publicize or use to chase clout.

There are many widows and orphans in Nigeria now due to Government's inactions and inability to checkmate this evil that has befallen our nation. I'm starting to think some of these highly placed politicians are stakeholders in this bo0ming crime business of kidnapping.
You can't tell me that with Police, Army, NAF, Civil defense, Legions, Amotekun etc. etc.. they can't tackle this menace.
See how Lagos Security are responding to this threat compared to what likes of Ondo and Oyo Stattes are doing. It's really sad I tell you.

Ondo state is the hotbed of kidnapping and all manner of criminality of recent.

From Ore, watch your movement.

Keep looking to Anambra while the killers are coming from other places.

Your illegitimate president is there, instead of calling for state police, you're calling for amotekun. Northwest killings worsened with Buhari, do not let SW killings worsen with Tinubu.

If Tinubu goes through the 4yrs he stole without restructuring, Yorubas would have wasted 4yrs. Local govt autonomy you guys are celebrating as restructuring is just incrementalism.

I'm happy Tinubu is failing woefully.

Yeah most the security guys are culpable in all this. Even FG are foot dragging in allowing state sanctioned security guys like Amotekun from owning assault weapons. Is it the same FG that will now grant private contractors?

See the case of Amotekun vs some Fulani herdmen few weeks ago in Ondo state. Amotekun can’t shoot which those terrorists are pelting them, if any death happen, they will prosecute them as they would a murderer which explain why they had to drag criminals to police and etc.

Tinubu should do the needful asap. He knows what to do, he shouldn’t waste time. Some agbekoya in Oyo do their stuffs off the radar, but I don’t think that is what we need in those age and time of civilization.

Cry all you want boy, “Peter Obi will NEVER be president”.

Who is crying after the series of kidnappings rocking Ondo and Oyo?

Obi is not desperate to be president. If Tinubu does not restructure after 4yrs when he will be booted out, any call for restructuring from the SW in the next 20yrs would be treated as a joke

Check the news. They are all coming from Anambra so there is greater probability there might be Ibo among them.

So they are mostly your people. You can mock their deaths for all you want.

Use a more posh language to abuse me. Don’t use the language of the bush people.

Amotekum terrorists are the real kidnappers and killers.



I remember owo church massacre that Amotekum terrorists killed dozens.

Who is crying for the daily killing that IPOB have been killing your people for almost 8 years + now?

I know you don’t value your people life coz Ojukwu wasted almost 3 million and ya’ll still praise him either ways.

Upon all the Ibos Kanu the terrorists killed, ya’ll still continue to worship him.

Leave Tinubu, he has achieved what no Ibo man have achieved in their almost 80 years of limelight, “NO IBO MAN HAS BEEN ELECTED PRESIDENT through the ballot”

So if Tinubu lose in 2027, he will go back to Bourdillon with that title “Former elected president”. Obi can never have such luxury even in death!

Yes , Amotekumm murdered lot of your people in Owo massacre. If you think I’m lying, below are the list of the deceased from Owo.

Mock their death bro, Ojukwu did same in 1979.

Your people make up 70+% of the list. I guess they learnt well from Adekunle the scorpion.

RIP to them all. They do not deserve to die. I pray all ISWAP terrorists perish from the surface of the earth.

This your statement shows you don't know much about this route.

Your brothers board early morning buses from Owo and Akure to go buy goods in Onitsha, sleep over and return back in the morning.

That Corp member must be the only Igbo person there maybe returning for his posting.

Stop talking senselessly.

You don’t know much about the route too.

Your people escape their region daily in droves to seek refuge in the SW. They are probably those who got caught up by those dare devil terrorists.

Whether they are Ibo or Nupe or Yoruba, I don’t have a reason to mock anyone because danger can happen to anybody anytime. Even abroad, a random boy can just burst a random person brain with bullet. Infact people dropping dead to gun death in America are more than those in Naija. So death is everywhere.

If you can’t caution your people on this thread mocking them, why then are you facing me to lecture me about who it is or is not?

Let’s even say they are all Yoruba and one Ibo among them like you said, if the Ibo guy life not worth anything for you guys to mock them together?

This is just childish reasoning

Yes it’s childish.

Peter Obi will NEVER be president. Even if Tinubu leave the seat tomorrow, Peter won’t still be president.

In this country, Peter is from the minority tribe politically with no bargaining right.

What will he bargain power with? Population, crude, money, or network?

Even Tinubu from a politically majority Yoruba had to go “Emilokan” and fight to a standstill to get the power.

Obi the boy-man is online propping kids up on Twitter thinking that will get him power. If it’s that easy, Azikiwe wouldn’t have come third at every attempt at the ballot.

That governor is worse than Akeredolu, Ondo state should find a capable governor from neighboring Edo state.

Those doing the killings will later become politicians. And eventually buy their way into political Offices with blood money and people will be wondering why are majority of the politicians heartless.

Those fulani idiots have really encircle ondo state.
