Toyin Abraham has reacted to the tragic attack in Oyo state that led to the abduction of school teachers and students
The filmmaker on her Instagram page, expressed deep sorrow over the incident, mourning with the families of the individuals that were k!lled.
”My heart is deeply heavy over the painful killings and abductions happening in Oyo State and across different parts of Nigeria. As someone with strong ties to Oyo State through family, culture and love for the people, this tragedy feels very personal to me. It is heartbreaking to see innocent lives lost, families thrown into mourning, children living in fear and communities traumatised by violence. I mourn especially with the families of the victims, the parents whose children were taken, and everyone affected by the recent attacks in Oriire Local Government and other parts of the state. No Nigerian deserves to live in fear. No child should be afraid to go to school. No family should wake up to news of violence and bloodshed,” she stated.
Toyin also lauded the security agents in Oyo for their efforts, stressing the need for more intensive action to ensure the release of the individuals remaining in captivity.
“I want to sincerely commend the efforts of the security agencies and the Oyo State Government, but it is important to appeal for more urgent and decisive actions to secure the release of those still in captivity and strengthen the protection of lives and communities. And please, what is the state government doing to prevent future occurrences? Nigeria belongs to all of us, and this is a time for unity, compassion and collective responsibility. We cannot normalise violence. We must continue to speak up, support one another and pray for peace to return to our land. May God comfort every grieving family, heal our nation and protect every innocent life,” she added.
