A resident of Akinfosile, Omolayo Akinyemi said that kidnappers in the area were hitherto known to operate in the night but they had become so bold that they now carried out their nefarious activity in broad daylight. He disclosed that no fewer than 50 cases of kidnapping were recorded in the area in the last two months. According to him, the victims were released after payments of ransom and a few who could not afford to meet the demands of the criminals were either killed or maimed. “Kidnapping is a routine here. These people kidnap motorists and commuters on a daily basis despite the heavy presence of security operatives on the road. There was a heavy shooting here on Monday (15 July), after which we learnt that some people were kidnapped with their vehicles left on the road. We live in fear and sleep with our eyes open. We can hardly visit our farms any longer and we withdraw into our homes as early as 5.00 p.m. They never spare us from their activities; some of our people have also fallen victim to them. They parted with nothing less than N100,000 to secure their release on each occasion,” Akinyemi said…He explained that they formed a vigilante group in the area to protect themselves but the move yielded no positive results as “these kidnappers are always heavily armed. Their weapons are very sophisticated. This is one of the reasons we have resolved to always withdraw into our homes as early as possible.” Please Subscribe:
