Ondo Amotekun Foils Kidnapping, Rescues Four Victims.

In a daring operation, Ondo State Security Network Agency, Amotekun, has rescued four travelers abducted along the Owo/Ose highway, arresting two notorious kidnap kingpins in the process. Commander Adetunji Adeleye led the operatives, collaborating with local hunters, to apprehend the suspects and rescue the victims.

The suspects, responsible for terrorizing farmers and commuters on the Elegbeka/Ifon road, confessed to collecting N1.2 million in ransom from previous victims in August. A gun battle ensued before the kidnappers were captured alive.

 Key Highlights of the Operation:

– Swift Response: Amotekun operatives mobilized quickly after receiving reports of kidnapping along a known route.
– Collaborative Effort: Local hunters joined forces with Amotekun to comb the forest and rescue the victims.
– Identified Suspects: Victims identified the arrested kidnappers as responsible for previous abductions in the area.
– Exposed Tactics: Kidnappers used blocked roads and extortion, demanding N20 million in ransom.

Commander Adeleye’s Statement:

“This arrest sends a strong message: there is no hiding place for kidnappers in Ondo State anymore… We will continue to work tirelessly to ensure these criminals are brought to justice and our communities remain safe.”

The rescued victims are receiving medical attention and psychological support, while the arrested kidnappers face legal proceedings. Ondo State’s security agencies reaffirm their commitment to making the state inhospitable to criminals.

“We want every criminal in Ondo State to know—there is no safe haven for you here. We will find you, and justice will be served.”
