President Bola Tinubu has condemned the killing of a teacher abducted during a school attack in Oyo State, while assuring that security agencies are working to rescue the remaining victims still in captivity.
The president reacted to reports that one of the kidnapped teachers died while being held by the abductors following the attack on a school in the Ogbomoso area of the state.
Tinubu described the killing as tragic and unacceptable, expressing sympathy to the victim’s family, colleagues, and the affected community.
He also directed security agencies to intensify efforts to locate the abductors and ensure the safe release of the remaining teachers and students reportedly taken during the incident.
The attack has sparked widespread concern across Nigeria, with teachers, residents, and education stakeholders calling for stronger protection for schools and rural communities facing insecurity threats.
