Abductors of Oyo lawmaker’s sister demand N20m ransom

Abductors of a younger sister to Sunkanmi Babalola, the Deputy Majority Leader in the Oyo State House of Assembly have reached out to the family, demanding ₦20 million ransom for her release.

The lawmaker’s sister, Jumoke Oludele, was reportedly kidnapped on Monday in Ibadan, Oyo State capital, by suspected gunmen.

The lady was said to have been kidnapped Monday night around Oniguguri junction in the Monatan area of Ibadan, while coming from her shop.

Her elder brother, who said the family had reported the incident, added that his sister was kidnapped at about 8:20pm.

He said, “According to information, three gunmen in a white Toyota Camry kidnapped her. I was told that the abductors shot into the air twice and forced her from her car into theirs.

“I have not heard anything, but we are still hoping to get a positive response from them; they contacted a member of the family but the terms and conditions are yet to be agreed upon.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Oyo State Command, Olugbenga Fadeyi, said he had yet to be briefed on the abduction as the police station where the incident happened was razed during the #EndSARS protest in the state.
