Gunmen have kidnapped a 60-year-old headmaster, Kolawale Mathew Owoade, in Itesiwaju Local Government Area of Oyo State and demanded N30 million for his release
Owoade, popularly known as Onaiye, is the headmaster of Nomadic Basic School in Igbojaye, Budo Aare.
He was abducted between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. on Saturday while returning from his farm in the Budo Aare area.
His son, Abiola Owoade, said the kidnappers contacted the family shortly after the attack using his father’s mobile phone.
According to him, the abductors demanded N30 million before they would release the victim.
A search team later discovered Owoade’s abandoned motorcycle inside a bush at about 8:20 a.m. on Sunday.
Abiola appealed to the Nigerian Army, police, Department of State Services, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, Amotekun, hunters and local vigilantes to help rescue his father.
He expressed concern for the headmaster’s safety and urged security agencies to act quickly before the situation worsened.
