The Coalition of Nigeria Youth on Security and Safety Affairs (CONYSSA) Ondo State Chapter strongly condemns the recent abduction of about Twenty-Five (25) members of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) from Akure, who were en route to Ifon, Ose local government area, for a burial ceremony. This incident occurred along the Owo-Ifon-Benin road, an area notorious for kidnappings and armed robberies.
It is with a sense of relief and gratitude that we announce the rescue of eight choristers from the CAC Oke Igan branch in Akure, who were among those abducted. We commend the swift and diligent efforts of the Security Apparatus in the State in securing their release.
However, our hearts remain heavy as we call for the immediate and safe release of the remaining kidnapped victims.
The safety of our citizens is paramount, and it is distressing that the Owo-Benin Expressway has become a breeding ground for criminal activities. CONYSSA urges the relevant security agencies to intensify efforts to ensure the security of this vital transportation route. We implore them to reclaim the territory currently under the control of kidnappers in the Ifon axis and to take decisive actions to prevent further abductions along this road.
In these trying times, CONYSSA stands united with the affected families and the entire community, and we remain committed to advocating for enhanced security measures to protect our citizens. We call upon the government to prioritize the safety of our roads and the security of our people. Together, we can make our highways safe once again.
The Coalition of Nigeria Youth on Security and Safety Affairs (CONYSSA) is a non-governmental organization dedicated to promoting the safety and security of Nigerian citizens, particularly the youth. We work tirelessly to raise awareness, engage with stakeholders, and advocate for improved security measures to protect our communities.
