“Some of those that were injured during the rescue operation were taken to the General hospital, Share, Ifelodun Local Government and have been discharged after the treatment.”

Also, the Coordinator of Kwara South Joint Community Security Watch, Olaitan Oyin-Zubair commended the joint security team for their efforts in rescuing all the people abducted.

“The rescue team of Hunters/ Vigilante and Anti- Kidnapping Squad of the Police Force never rested in combing the forests till the last batch of the abductees regained their freedom on Monday.”

He disclosed that no ransom was offered for any of the abductees despite persistent daily demands from the kidnappers.
