Woman killed, 2 POS operators abducted in Kwara

A woman was killed and two others abducted around 8pm on Saturday as gunmen invaded Ora community in Ifelodun LGA of Kwara State.

A community leader told our correspondent that, “Those abducted are two female Point of Sale (POS) operators. They also killed another woman and attacked the husband of one of the POS operators who was trying to rescue her and inflicted deep cuts on him. He is now battling for life in the hospital.”

Confirming the incident, the Chairman of Ifelodun LGA, Mr Jide Asonibare, said “Over 100 vigilantes, hunters, police and soldiers are now combing the forest for their possible rescue.”

Spokesman of the Kwara State Police Command, Ajayi Okasanmi, in a telephone chat with our correspondent on Sunday, said, “We heard about it, but I will find out the details and get back to you.”

Recall that last month a housewife and three of her children were abducted by gunmen in Ajilete community, Agunjin District in the same Ifelodun LGA and demanded a N100m ransom before they were eventually rescued by security operatives.
