Gunmen Kill 1, Abduct Ex-US Soldier, Another In Ekiti by Nobody: 6:21pm On Sep 15, 2020
One person has been killed in Ijan Ekiti, Gbonyin Local Government Area of Ekiti State, as a retired United States of America army officer, Major Jide Ijadare and one other have also been abducted in the town.

Ijadare, a native of Ijan Ekiti was kidnapped on Tuesday afternoon at his palm oil producing factory located along Ijan-Ise Ekiti road.
This is coming barely 48 hours after a director in the State’s Local Government Service Commission, David Jejelowo, was killed in his residence in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital.

Confirming the incident, a resident of the community, revealed that the men of the underworld, numbering seven, had invaded the factory, where they shot a staff in the course of making spirited efforts to kidnap the retired army officer and other victim.
“They came into the factory with guns and started shooting sporadically. They shot one of the staff of the factory and killed him.
“They thereafter dragged Major Ijadare and the other staff into the car and zoomed off.”
The source stated that the abductors escaped through Ise Ekiti road.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Ekiti Command, Sunday Abutu, confirmed that one person was killed during the abduction.
“We can confirm to you that a retired US soldier was kidnapped around 2:00pm today(Tuesday) and one other.
“One person was also killed during the attack at a factory in Ijan Ekiti where the two persons were kidnapped.
“The police commissioner has drafted policemen to the place and we are combing the bushes where they escaped into.
“The police is working with local hunters to work with us and ensure that these kidnappers are arrested and prosecuted.”

What the heck is going on in this country? This is no longer funny. Even Rwanda with a history of genocide is safer than Nigeria. No one is safe anymore in this country.

If these are not attributes of a failed nation, I wonder what is?!

Nigeria has officially been added to the same Whatsapp and telegram group with Somalia, Afghanistan, Syria, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, South Sudan, and Yemen. Nobody is safe anymore, the economy is in shambles, Poverty is a top striker in Nigeria and has scored so many goals, while corruption has the biggest embassy in the country. The situation is very heartbreaking so much so that you need a mic to pray for God to hear you cos there is so much noise caused by wailing in the land. The country is just in a mess.

better start operation amotekun too in ekiti like ondo state us doing. But I'm not sure the abductors were herdsmen. These sound like kidnappers operating within the state looking for ransom payment
