A kidnapped family, including a pregnant woman, her children and a sibling, has reportedly been released following a two-hour ultimatum issued by Yoruba activist, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho.
Naijaonpoint earlier reported that Igboho, while reacting to the kidnapping and killing of a pregnant woman and her sibling in the middle of the night in the Igboho area of Oyo State, had issued a two-hour ultimatum to Fulani leaders in the community.
He accused some members of the Fulani community of kidnapping residents and referenced incidents involving a pregnant woman and ransom negotiations that reportedly turned deadly.
The Yoruba nation agitator warned that he would have problems with the Fulani leaders if the body of the pregnant woman is not released within the stipulated time.
“The person who brought the ransom, you still killed him and spared only one person,” he said, while warning that such incidents must not repeat.
“I am Sunday Igboho. I am calm because my fathers asked me to be calm with you. Let this be the last time such a thing will happen,” he said.
Following the ultimatum, videos from the community showed jubilant residents celebrating what was described as the release of the abducted family, though details surrounding the circumstances of their freedom remain unclear at the time of filing this report.
Below is a video shared by Punch of the residents celebrating.
