“This is not about APC or Tinubu” – Iyabo Ojo angry over Oyo kidnappings, growing insecurity in Nigeria

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has reacted to the recent spate of kidnappings in Oyo State, expressing concern over worsening insecurity in the country.

In a viral video doing rounds on the internet, the actress questioned the role of security agencies and lamented the increasing activities of bandits in different parts of Nigeria.

“This is not about APC not doing well, Tinubu not doing well. We ourselves are not ready because we are too afraid. We are too afraid to speak and stand by the truth,” she said.

Iyabo Ojo further asked how bandits continue to attack communities, they kidnap residents and carry out attacks despite the presence of military personnel who were supposed to protect the citizens.

She also called on the government and security agencies to explain the challenges they face, insisting that she refuses to believe that criminals are stronger than the Nigerian military.

“What’s going on? Are these people more than you military men who should be in charge of protecting the lives and property of your citizens?” she asked.

The video has since sparked reactions online, with many Nigerians agreeing with her concerns, while others debated the responsibility of both the government and citizens in addressing the issue of insecurity.

The actress’ remarks continue to trend on social media as debates mount over the increasing cases of kidnappings and attacks across the country.
