Gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen have reportedly kidnapped three people along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. The kidnapped victims are one of the sons of the proprietor of Lafia hospital, Apata, Dr Sule and two others who are workers of the hospital.
The three abducted victims were said to be in a Toyota Sienna car when they were waylaid as they approached Ajebo on their way to Ibadan. According to report, one of the escaped victims said most of the kidnappers numbering 15 spoke Hausa, but one conversed in English.
Earlier today, a message circulating via WhatsApp purportedly shared in a group on Wednesday morning, read: “Good morning house, these kidnappers are now on Lagos Ibadan axis, I woke up this morning to receive the following message from my friend, Dr Sule, the owner of Lafia hospital Apata, Ibadan: Please pray for me. My first Son and two members of my Staff have been Kidnapped by Fulani herdsmen on their way back from Lagos along Ajebo. I need your prayers please!!!!”
Meanwhile, IvoryNG.com had previously reported that some herdsmen allegedly mounted road blocks and checkpoints in some parts of area of Ondo state. It was reported that a legal practitioner and activist, Kayode Ajulo, said he noticed some of the persons alleged to be members of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), armed and mounting road blocks.
