Wrong to compare ex-Minister’s sister, nephews’ kidnapping to Oyo school abduction -Presidency

The presidency has said it is wrong to compare the abduction incident of former Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu’s sister and her kids to that of the Oyo schoolchildren and teachers.

Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, Temitope Ajayi, said this in a post on his verified X handle on Sunday.

Ajayi said those who are comparing Adelabu’s sister and her twin sons’ situation to the Ogbomoso kids and their teachers are totally wrong.

The presidential spokesman noted that it is wrong to compare the urban gang of kidnappers who engage in copycat crime to make money and hide victims inside a flat within the community to a band of terrorists operating deep inside the bush.

“It’s totally wrong to compare these two abduction incidents. The two sets of criminals have different motivations and agendas.

“The Ogbomoso children and their teachers will be rescued. Government anf security agencies are not as selective as falsely claimed. The approach to the two incidents can’t be the same.

“We should be happy that the woman and her twins are safely home while we pray for quicker rescue of those still in the bush with their abductors,” he tweeted.

Recall that the ex-minister’s sister and her kids were rescued late Saturday by the Nigeria police from a kidnapper’s den.
