By: Olufemi Orunsola
The Governor of Kwara State, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has announce the recovery of 38 persons who were recently abducted in an attack on Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Eruku, Ekiti LGA, of the state.
OPEN TELEVISION NAIJA (OTN) News reports as gathered from authoritative sources that the Governor credits the release of the abducteees wholly to what he calls the hands-on approach of President Bola Tinubu, GCFR, who has personally led the efforts to free the abductees.
The announcement by the Governor revealed that the abductees were freed on Sunday November 23.
The statement reads that , The Governor is immensely grateful to President Bola Tinubu, GCFR, for his direct initiative that made this happen."
He recalled that the president had called off his scheduled trip for the G20 Meeting in South Africa to attend to the breaches in Kwara and Kebbi States. He had also directed heightened security deployments to Kwara, in what underlined his firm commitment to the safety and wellbeing of our people and Nigerians as a whole.
The visibly elated Governor also expressed his appreciation to the Office of the National Security Adviser; the Department of State Services (DSS); the Nigerian Army; Nigeria Intelligence Agency; and, of course, the Nigeria Police, which has graciously deployed four new tactical teams to Kwara State on the directive of the President.
The statement concludes that the Governor also thanks members of the security forces across board, thought leaders, religious institutions, and all Kwarans for their support and goodwill since the unfortunate incident.
