BREAKING: Tinubu Sends Powerful Delegation to Oyo Following School Kidnap [VIDEO]
A high-powered federal government delegation sent by President Bola Tinubu has arrived in Ogbomoso, heading towards the villages of Esiele and Yawota in the Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State, where armed men recently raided three schools and abducted 46 pupils and teachers.
The delegation includes the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu; Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila; Inspector General of Police, Tunji Disu; and Defence Minister, Christopher Musa. They are joined by the Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, and presidential media aide, Sunday Dare.
The coordinated raid took place on May 15, when heavily armed men simultaneously stormed three educational institutions in the area: Community Grammar School, Baptist Nursery and Primary School in Yawota, and L.A. Primary School in Esiele.
During the attack, the gunmen seized 39 students and pupils, mostly children aged between two and 16 years, alongside seven teachers.
Reacting, President Tinubu had condemned the mass abduction as “barbaric” and assured grieving families that the federal government is collaborating fully with the Oyo State government, deploying advanced tracking technology and tactical intelligence teams to ensure the safe rescue of all victims.
