All the schoolchildren and teachers abducted during the May 15 attack on the Ahoro-Esiele community in Oriire Local Government Area of Oyo State have been released, Alendtrend can confirm.
The victims were kidnapped when heavily armed gunmen invaded the community, abducting 46 pupils, teachers, and the principal of a secondary school, triggering nationwide concern.
The crisis took a tragic turn days after the abduction when one of the kidnapped teachers, Michael Oyedokun, was beheaded by the abductors.
Alendtrend News Reports has now confirmed the successful rescue of the remaining victims. Details surrounding the rescue operation, including whether any arrests were made have not yet been disclosed.
The development brings relief to the victims' families and the wider public, who had anxiously awaited positive news about their safety.
At the time of filing this report, authorities have not released full details of the rescue operation. It remains unclear how the victims were freed, whether security forces carried out a coordinated operation, or if any suspects were arrested in connection with the incident.
Security agencies are expected to provide further updates as investigations continue and more information becomes available.
