“Tinubu Has Failed Us” — Man Cries Out After Friend’s Alleged Kidnap in Edo [VIDEO]

A Nigerian man has publicly expressed frustration over the country’s security situation after claiming that one of his friends was abducted while travelling along the Benin-Lagos Expressway.

The man, who appeared in a viral video circulating on social media, narrated how he had advised his friend to avoid travelling by road because of persistent security concerns on major highways.

According to him, the plan was for his friend to travel by air, but the high cost of flight tickets forced him to make the journey by road instead.

Speaking emotionally in the video, the man alleged that the incident occurred around Ore, a community that serves as a major transit point between the South-West and South-South regions of the country.

He claimed that information available to him suggested that the suspected kidnappers were dressed in police uniforms when the attack took place.

Expressing anger over the situation, he blamed the administration of President Bola Tinubu for what he described as worsening insecurity across the country.

“My friend was just k+dnapped in Ore. We were told the k+dnappers were wearing police uniforms. President Tinubu, you have failed us. We don’t want you. We will take back our country come 2027,” he said.

The video has since generated reactions online, with many Nigerians raising concerns about the safety of travellers on major highways and calling for stronger security measures.

As of the time of filing this report, there was no official confirmation from the Nigeria Police Force regarding the alleged abduction. Authorities have also not released any statement concerning the claims made in the viral video.

The Benin-Lagos Expressway has, over the years, been linked to several cases of armed attacks, kidnappings and robberies, particularly around sections of Ondo and Edo states.
