The five kidnapped leaders of Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics in Oyo State have regained freedom on Saturday night.

The police Public Relations Officer, Mr Gbenga Fadeyi, told our correspondent that he was yet to be briefed of the development as at the time of filing this report.

But sources said they were allegedly released after payment of five million naira ransom.

A source from the institution told our correspondent on condition of anonymity that the abducted leaders regained freedom after the payment of the said ransom.


The ASUP Chairman, Opadijo Oluyide, his Secretary, Mr. Gbenga Alayande and three others were kidnapped on Thursday night while returning from Saki, in Oke Ogun area of the state.

The union leaders had attended the Joint Action Committee of unions in all the six Oyo State-owned tertiary institutions at Oke-Ogun Polytechnic, Saki.

He said that the five million naira ransom was contributed by members of staff of the institution to secure the release of the leaders.


The source said, “We just secured their release this night after payment of five million contributed by our members.

“I want to tell you that we have lost confidence in the Nigerian Police Force. Those who kidnapped our leaders were Fulanis.

“We are going to stage a protest to the government secretariat to remove totally the ‘Kara’ market in this area. We will down tools until the market is totally removed"

Always using religious card to divert from critical reasoning. How was the tribe of the kidnappers known.

Every tribe in Nigeria has a distinct look and accent.

Stop asking stupid questions, the victims are lecturers not toddlers

Okay I think it is high time there is an anti kidnapping squad set up within the military especially the Nigeria Army comprising of Special Force personnel who are to report there activities only to the President, I am beginning to smell some undertone in this Kidnapping Saga.

The fulani kidnappers menace has come to stay cos they have the backing of the fulani controlled FG. Argue with your conscience!

Fulani Kidnappers, Igbo Kidnappers chai

Even if our partial mods failed to bring the kidnap news to FP, the release story eventually made it to FP. I will call this 'one-sidedness'

Send these people out of South you people never listen. Herdsmen are not needed and are not important to the South. Cow meat is not compulsory to eat for Goodness sake. Send them packing they are evil. A word is enough for the wise.

What are you trying to say?
Do you mean when you see a Fulani man you can't identify him?
They're easily identified

Shattap Oga!

Question was asked and you started insult.


I repeat again,how do you differenciate a Fulani man from all other Northern tribes?

I know you have no answer. Just using the question to school you.

Only a fool would allow a kara or cattle market in his community, they're synonymous with violent crimes, rape, drug abuse, dirty environment, prostitution, ritual killings etc.

Memelations 3:1 ---- "Anywhere 2 or 3 fulani herdsmen are gathered there must be kidnapping".

Where are the cows

Stupid Journalism!

Multiple crimes and multiple victims across different locations within the same country and the testimony of the victims all point to the same group of people. Are you saying all the victims, from Edo to Ondo to Oyo to Kwara to Benue to Kaduna to Enugu to Delta states are all lying?

That Kara cattle market is a mini-RUGA, and you can see armed robbery, kidnappings and other violent crimes are spiking up in that area and surrounding places. This is exactly what will happen with RUGA settlements, only on a far larger scale. They will become dens for armed herdsmen kidnappers and thieves, and breeding grounds for killer herdsmen terrorists militias, and spying rings and cells for coordinating hit and run terror attacks. I just pity the hausas in the North, in 20years they will realize that they have made the biggest mistake in their existence when they are wiped out by the same fulani militias they are importing from all over Africa to terrorize Nigeria, kill farmers, destroy communities and take over other people's lands

The victims identified their kidnappers and you are here trying to unidentify them.

Keep quiet
