NDC Supports Makinde's UN Probe Call on School Abduction

The Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) has endorsed Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde's request for a United Nations-led investigation into the recent abduction of students and a teacher in the Oriir school, located in Oyo State. The NDC issued a statement on Tuesday, asserting that an independent inquiry by the UN would help uncover the truth and ensure accountability for the victims' families.

The party emphasized that the investigation should not be politicized and that every question surrounding the incident must be answered through a transparent and credible process. The NDC also called for the federal government to support legitimate efforts aimed at uncovering the truth and strengthening public confidence in security institutions to prevent similar tragedies in the future.

The statement highlighted the importance of prioritizing the safety and security of Nigerian children, urging that such matters should not be subjected to political disagreements or speculation.
