Take-It-Back Movement Protests Abductions in Oyo State

The Take-It-Back Movement, coordinated by Dimeji Salako, has announced a protest scheduled for June 22 in Ibadan, Oyo State, to address the ongoing issue of insecurity and the abduction of schoolchildren and teachers. Salako stated that the protest aims to demand the release of the victims and draw attention to the deteriorating security situation in Nigeria.

He noted that in the past month, 40 schoolchildren and seven teachers were abducted in Ogbomoso, and no significant actions have been taken by the government to secure their release. The movement criticized the increasing attacks by bandits across the country, emphasizing that the situation has worsened rather than improved.

The protest is part of a series of actions to rally Nigerians to demand an end to banditry and ensure the safety of citizens. The Take-It-Back Movement has previously participated in demonstrations across various cities, including Abuja, Lagos, and Osun, advocating for improved security and welfare for Nigerians.
