Families and relations wept profusely as the remains of Adesiyan Adegboye, one of the victims of the bandit attacks on Esiele community in Oriire Local Government Area, was laid to rest on Friday in Ogbomoso.
The burial service, which was held at Ayegun Baptist Church, Ogbomoso, had in attendance the wife, family members, relations and professional colleagues of the deceased.
The deceased, born on December 11, 1976, was murdered by the bandits who invaded Baptist Nursery and Primary School, Yawota, Community Grammar School and L.A. Primary School, Esiele, at about 9:30am.
GISTSMATE MEDIA reports that teachers and students were abducted during the coordinated attacks on the three schools in Oriire Local Government Area.
Following the incident, the Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Disu, visited the scene on Saturday and deployed additional detectives from the Force Headquarters in Abuja to collaborate with the joint security team in ongoing rescue operations.
The deployment, according to the police, was aimed at ensuring the safe rescue of the abducted teachers and students.
Governor Seyi Makinde had earlier confirmed that seven students were abducted from Community Secondary School, while 18 pupils and seven teachers were kidnapped from First Baptist Primary and Nursery School.
He also confirmed that one person was killed during the attack.
The incident triggered widespread panic in Ogbomoso and surrounding communities, with many parents rushing to schools to withdraw their children over fears of further attacks.
Some schools were also forced to shut down temporarily following rumours of bandits infiltrating the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, an allegation the institution’s management later dismissed as false.
Our correspondent reports that the state government is working tirelessly to ensure the release of the victims and the arrest of the gunmen.
