Following the arrest of a 22-year-old suspected female kidnapper, Adeola Omoniyi, by the men of the Ondo state Police command, Igbotako, a community in Okitipupa local government area of Ondo state has debunked the report that the alleged kidnapper is an indigene of the town.
The alleged kidnapper who was paraded at the Ondo State Police Headquarters in Akure alongside her father, disclosed that she has been working in connection with her father, Ilesanmi, who usually pays her a sum of N30,000 for each toddler kidnapped and deposited at his place in Igbotako.

"Having read the reports of the incident, we are disturbed that she mentioned Igbotako, we made our findings and it was revealed that the accused parents have no traceable lineage and connection to our town.
The statement further revealed that the parents are from a neighboring community and not Igbotako as falsely reported.
"We urge the general public to kindly take note,” the statement said.
Governors who have supported citizens to have guns for self-defence
Oyetola’s position is coming amidst a call to have citizens legally obtain guns to defend themselves as violent attacks and crimes continue across the country.
Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara state recently made a public call where he asked the police authority to issue gun licenses to qualified and interested citizens to defend themselves.
The call was swiftly supported by his Ondo state counterpart, Rotimi Akeredolu, who noted that the current security structure is over-stretched while calling for state police.
