Kwara Families Appeal for Help as Gunmen Demand ₦500 Million Ransom for Abducted Workers Families of five workers abducted at a road construction site along Sabaja/Owa-Onire Road in Ifelodun LGA, Kwara State, are appealing to the government and security agencies for urgent intervention. The victims include two engineers, two labourers, and a driver. Kidnappers reportedly demanded a ₦500 million ransom, an amount far beyond the families’ means. Security forces, including police, military, and local vigilantes, have launched operations to rescue the victims. This incident mirrors another recent abduction in Oba community, Isin LGA, highlighting rising insecurity and targeted attacks on construction workers in Kwara State. #KwaraState #Kidnapping #Insecurity #NigeriaNews #RansomDemand #ConstructionWorkers #PoliceOperations
