According to the source: “Definitely, they are the ones who operated on Ayetoro-Ewu road on Sunday evening too,” 

“That of Sunday operation was not successful, and perhaps, that is why they visited again to carry out this one.

“On that Sunday evening, they attacked commercial motorcyclists by shooting sporadically into the air to scare people.

“A commercial motorcyclist was stopped at gunpoint and they took all his valuables, while another motorcyclist escaped into the bush.”

“At that point, we could not say the number of people taken into the forest, but the buses are still there as we speak,” the source said.

“I advised the hunters and security agents who arrived at the scene that the kidnappers would have gone towards the Otun Ekiti end, and that they would not have gone far that time.”

Confirming the incident, Ekiti police spokesman, Sunday Abutu said the incident took place on the Ayetoro Ekiti-Otun Ekiti road in Moba LGA of the state.
