Gunmen abduct Oyo PMS Chairman, Akintola

Unknown gunmen kidnapped Alhaji Akeem Akintola, the Oyo State Chairman, Tipper, Lorry, and Quarry Park Management System (PMS) on Saturday.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Akintola, popularly known as KUSO, was kidnapped at his residence in the Ajiboye area of Omi Apata, Ibadan.

A source, who did not want his name published, said that the gunmen stormed Akintola’s residence in the early hours of Saturday and abducted him to an unknown destination.

Efforts by NAN correspondents to confirm the incident with the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in Oyo State, SP Adewale Osifeso, proved abortive.

Several calls put through to his number were not answered.
