Fear grips Oro-Ago community after bandits kidnap nine worshippers during a Sunday service in Kwara State, sparking urgent security concerns.
Panic has engulfed the Oro-Ago community in Kwara State following a terrifying attack on a local church. Suspected terrorists stormed the premises on Sunday, forcibly abducting nine worshippers mid-service.
Reports reaching Obgist indicate the heavily armed gunmen arrived without warning, catching the congregation off guard. They operated with little resistance, whisking their victims away to an unknown destination while residents fled for safety.
The attack has left the Ifelodun Local Government Area in a state of confusion and fear. Locals are now pleading with security agencies to act swiftly to rescue the kidnapped victims.
This incident adds to the growing anxiety in Kwara South. Intelligence reports had previously flagged looming attacks in Ifelodun, Irepodun, and Isin council areas. Just days ago, security watch groups urged vigilance, warning that terrorists were planning coordinated strikes.
Despite these alerts and the notification of relevant authorities, the assailants still managed to strike. As of the time of this report, the police have yet to issue an official statement regarding the rescue efforts. The community remains on edge, hoping for the safe return of their loved ones.
