VIDEO: One Died As Amotekun, Local Hunters Rescue Four Kidnapped Victims in Oyo State
The Oyo State Security Network Agency, popularly known as Amotekun, in collaboration with local hunters, successfully freed four kidnapped victims, including the two wives and two sons of traditional head of the town, Baale Alagede.

It was gathered that the victims were abducted around 1:00 a.m. on Tuesday, February 25, 2025, from their residence in Alagede village, near Kola Daisi University in Akinyele, Ibadan. Acting swiftly, the security team tracked the kidnappers to the dense forest of Ojutaye along Oretu Road. The Sun gathered that there, Amotekun operatives and local hunters launched a coordinated attack, leading to the safe rescue of the victims.

Eyewitnesses reported that after the operation, a police AKS team arrived at the scene and forcefully took custody of the rescued individuals from Amotekun, who had been preparing to transport them to safety.

Tragically, during the intense operation, a courageous hunter from Oretu village, identified as Ojo, lost his life. A video of his lifeless body surfaced online, shared by NaijaTodayNews. Authorities are currently making arrangements to retrieve his remains for burial.

The Sun also gathered that despite the success of the mission, Amotekun and local hunters continued to comb the bush, having cornered the kidnappers in a specific area. Further developments from the ongoing operation said to be expected soon.

When ed for comments, the Public Relations Officer of the Oyo State Police Command, SP Adewale Osifeso, stated that he had not yet received any information on the incident. "I'm not aware of the report, but I'll get back to you as soon as I have any information," he said.

Just imagine ! Sounds like the police swooped in last minute to take credit for Amotekun’s hard work, almost like they didn’t want a local security outfit outshining them or maybe even had some prior "knowledge" of the kidnapping.

Seriously, what is our obsession with taking pictures of dead people?
I came here to see the joyful faces of the rescued, but I am met with a picture of death.
We are normalizing violence.

That photo in a sensible nation, will be censored.

You are an international website. Edit your headlines before posting. What do you mean by "One died" in your headline? It should be "One dead"!

Police want to take credit for work they did not do. It’s a shame that they will always never be ashamed of themselves.
If not for this one Nigeria of a thing the entire south would have been safe from banditry and killer Fulani herdsmen invasion. But now the festering wound of banditry have spread

Is citizens of a state that will thoroughly fight kidnappers.
Look at Amotekun and the Courageous hunters.
Anambra security outfit, other states should emulate this people.

Gov Makinde should name One of the Schools or main streets of Oyo State after Mr Ojo in honour
and recognition of his great Sacrifice
His Children must be granted free Education to any Oyo State owned schools ,,colleges , university and be entitled to automatic employment by the State Government
His widow too should be entitled to automatic employment by State Government in addition to any
Benefits that State Government will give her as compensation
And if the State Government ever builds low cost housing she should be automatically be entitled
to one or if it is a shop she wants she should get it automatically

The Labour of our heros past shall never be in vain

Those guys are trying, their salary is too low for the work, they are doing.
They have been doing very well in Ondo state but I wish the governor can employ more and train them better with great salary. At least 250/300K salary
