Unknown gunmen have kidnapped no fewer than 18 passengers from a commercial bus in the Ibarapa area of Oyo State.
The incident was said to have happened between Igboora and Eruwa Road in the early hours of Thursday.
It was gathered that the passengers were coming from Abeokuta, Ogun State, into Oyo when the bus conveying them was attacked by the criminals, who whisked away an unspecified number of passengers.
The Secretary of Farmers Union in Ibarapa, Taiwo Adeagbo, told newsmen that, “The bus is still beside the road there between Eruwa and Igboora. I have told the police, I told our senator and others. I am saddened by these happenings.”
