Angry women stormed the streets of Akure, the Ondo state capital, to protest the alleged kidnap of nine surveyors at the Ilu Abo community in Akure North Local Government Area of the state.
The placard-carrying women expressed concern over the state’s insecurity recently.
They blocked the governor’s office and caused gridlock in the Akure metropolis for hours.
The protesters called on security agencies to be alive to their responsibility and secure the release of the victims.
Addressing the protesters, Bola Taiwo, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Union Matters, appealed to them and promised that the victims would soon be released.
