Videos showing a principal and a teacher who were abducted from schools in Oriire LGA of Oyo state have surfaced on social media. In one video, Alamu F.O, principal of Community High School, Esiele, pleaded from a forest background: “We have been here since Friday. Come to our help so that our lives will not be lost.” Another video shows a nursing mother, Temitope, crying: “Tinubu, please help us. Governor Makinde, please help us.” The Oyo information commissioner said the kidnappers are reportedly trapped in a section of Old Oyo National Park.
