Gunmen invade Ondo community, abduct three farmers
Gunmen suspected to be kidnappers have abducted a farmer, Funke Agbaje, along with two others in Agbaje community, Ala-Elefosan axis of Idanre Local Council Area of Ondo State.
The victims, comprising two women and one male, were seized while working on their farm settlement in the agrarian community.
According to a source who spoke on condition of anonymity, the abductors have established contact with the families, demanding a ransom of N5 million for the release of each of the three captives.
The source further stated that the incident had been reported to the Ala Police Station as well as the Ondo State Security Network Agency, codenamed Amotekun.
He said, “My sister-in-law, Funke Falolu, and the two others had gone to the farm just as they do every day. We never imagined they would not return home. The kidnappers called and told us to bring N5 million before they will be released. Where do we get such money?”
When contacted, the police public relations officer for the Ondo State Command, Abayomi Jimoh, assured that the incident will be investigated.
